    Default Swap jig, color ideas needed quick

    Okay, I have suggestions for a bright pink head and a white crystal tail with white marabou. Any other thoughts? Gonna start painting them tomorrow so I can get them done by the 20th or so I hope.

    I was thinking either a black or purple glitter head but I am all for high visibility and a bright color if it should work.


    Body coloration. Should I make it a uniform color or should I do 2 colors. If 2 colors, please make suggestions!


    Jig I am making but in different colors.

    One more thing, will liquid nails work fine to seal and harden the heads so that the nail polish lasts longer? Anything else that will work that can be brushed on and not have to do as many as possible as quickly as possible like you have to with epoxy?

    them sure are some pretty colors fish4all.
    and i think the white on white with the pink head wouldn't be a bad color arrangement
    i like pink heads use them for anything from crappie to walleye. so pink is my color of choice.

    just my 2 cents,

    Brother I told him pink ! and Jughead it's not about being equal, worse or better it's about believing in what you do ! If were out fishing and your catching fish and I'm not I'm, Myself am not to proud to ask a lone of what you might be using , by the mear fact that it might not have looked as good as somebody else's.
    stick with what work's for you experiment with other's or add to your's from their's

    Alright, I will go with pink! But about the body, should I crochet the same color over itself or tie in another color?

    Jughead, I agree with flatfish. I can spend hours tying them and months perfecting them and a piece of yarn wrapped around hook with a plain head could out fish anything I tie on any given day. Confidence matters more than the look. I put the time, I tie them the way I do and I KNOW I WILL catch fish on them. Not everyone will. Tie what you know, maybe you will get one of mine someday and it will be the best thing you have ever fished and you will want to tie them. Maybe you will get one, spend half the day using it because it looks good and throw it in the lake because you didn't get a bite.
