    Default New Jig w/ silicone

    I had a few spinnerbait skirts laying around so I thought Id try something new. I started out by using the silicone skirt as tails and then came up with this. I like the way it looks under water. I'm sure someones tried it before if so .. Does it work??? Sorry about the crappy pics.

    looks good, and they will catch fish. I have tied and fished something similar with good results.

    Those look good. I've used rubber legs for BGs and REs with great results. Never tried for craps but I'll bet they'll work well

    I like the one in the first pict. Cool idea to have it as a skirt in the middle like that.

    Heck, take your picts from the distance the ones in the back are on your last pict. The rest are in good focus. You have a nice lookin' bunch of jigs....

    That is a hot looking just you got plenty of action with silicone your jig looks terrific we've been using silicone for a long time in making jigs we've always had good luck with that type of jig but we did not add silicone to the body we only used it for a tale

    Thanks for the comps. AF you make a good point about the focus. You would think that I would have noticed that! My camera skills just arent there yet.

    I would think the silicone would have a nice action to it. The jigs look great!

    Yes they are. When you wrap chenille over them the pain-factor increases exponentially. The legs want to go every direction but the right one! Im gonna see what the fish think before I make too many. Of course it will have to quit raining for that to happen!
