    Default Crappie on a shrimp?


    New member here, I posted the picture on the jigs picture thread but I would like y'alls opinion on a shrimp pattern that I make. I've caught Crappie on them here in Washington State but looking for opinions in your neck of the woods.

    Grass shrimp are one of the staples here in FL. Can't imagine that not working here. A fly rod on the coast would also put fish in the frozer.

    Sorry for the late response I've been fishing a lot. The shrimp are not from a mold they are made from drinking flex straws The white one weights is 1/32 oz and made from a mini flex straw. The other jigs are from a standard flex straw and weight 1/16 & 1/8 oz. If you U Tube shrimp from a straw it will give you the idea of how they are made. Finding the mini straws is hard wish I could find some clear mini straws.

    I like that, I've tied and used a scud pattern with success. Looks like a shrimp.
