Thanks, your welcome, glad you like that and I believe most jig tiers don't tie their tails the way I do. Heck I guess most don't do a lot of things the way I do, but I like my out come. I like doing this the way I do it because it offers a different look. A little more time consuming than to just use two tips, but I like the look better with the little V's.

There are other methods and for anyone that likes them better they should do what makes them happy. After all I have only been tying for about 3 years so I sure don't know it all, but I learned this way on my own by reading especially fly tying info on line. I then adjusted to fit what I wanted.

Skip you really are a legend. I am new here as well as a new jig maker but I have been reading your posts for a while. Wish the world had more people in it like you with your willingness to help people. Thanks for all the help you have given me without even knowing it...I am sure I'm not the only one that's been in here and learned something from you without posting...many thanks br

I usually don't take time to come back and read these reply's very often as there is so much to do, but I just wanted to than you for the kind comments.

I really appreciate that some notice and appreciate what I try to do helping out others. I feel it actually helps me to help others one way or another.

Thanks,

Skip

I hate you ,although we have shared jigs, me being the buyer and you the maker.
Must we take this up here? We are like 2 ships passing in the night. Those are some really badly-made horsehair jigs. Can I have 12 of em with some chartreuse heavily imbedded? Pink works good here on area reservoirs but I am such a fisherman that it gets old having topwater bite ruined by having to flick that sucker off.
Can you help, man?
I doan care what color so long as yur gaurantee it will make em bite goies along with the deal.

Horse hair jigs? LOL, I don't know what you are talking about, but if you PM me we can see what it is you want and I will try to do what you need.

I have made some jigs that have the pink puff with silver body and yellow tail for someone and he liked them enough to get me to make some in Roadrunners too.

Anyway lets talk on some PM's.

Thanks,
Skip
