They all do look great! I like how the crosscut looks, bet it will look real fishy in the water.
I have done a few walleye and bass bucktails and know how much of a pain they are. First few I pulled too tight and made puff balls. Next ones, hair fell out the back end. I can get workable ones now, but they look no where near as clean as yours!!!! NICE!

:D:D:D I gotta finish pouring a bunch but it's almost time to start tying.
My son will be home from advanced training from the army for Christmas then on to training to go play in the sand but tying will start soon.

Thank you and yes I have to be very careful how I start the wraps and the first few are the main thing. After that it's not so bad.

Skip, what color is the top left jig head in the crosscut rabbit jigs...Is it Candy Red??
Also, can you tie a 3/32head with a #6 or #8 hook?

That is candy orange and it is a pain as you have to paint it and cure it two times. That is because it needs a silver undercoat.
I don't have anything other than the #4 Gold hooks that you have seen. I just don't get enough calls for 3/32 to keep different hook sizes. I have #8 & #6 in both sickle and regular bend in most every size from 1/80 to 1/8 (except 3/32 & 3/16). I think only Sickle #8 in the 1/8 though. I do have both regular and sickle in 1/8 I think, LOL! Got so many I lose track of what I have.
