    After several fish they do get a little ragged.

    I love this section of the forums. You guys tie jigs just as good if not better than the store brands. You fellas inspire me.
    Thank you.

    It never crossed my mind to pair those two materials. Great idea. Good work as always, and the chartreuse collar looks way better than average. The tiny Ghost's I had tied a week or so back were the ticket for me over the weekend. So naturally the bare heads appeal to me. Now I gotta go diggin for the flank feathers.

    JungleJim got me to start using flank feathers a couple of years ago and I swear by them now....

    You tried belly spinner style on that pattern yet? The panfish out here are crushing the blades right now.
