    Default Opinions on a few new jigs?


    One is totally new for me and the others are a mix of hair and feathers. So let me know what you think please.

    Thanks in advance,

    They look great to me. Is that peacock hearl in the first one?

    Have fun "testing" them out!

    Thanks and it's peacock sword instead of herl. It actually has a lot more color than the picture shows.

    I wish I could get up the stuff to do my own jigs. Those look great. I like the 1st one best but could use more tail. I like a wrapped jig body. It gives the jig more density, plus the material holds my fish oil better

    Thanks guys I appreciate it!

    I was using some shad oil this morning FalconSmitty on one that had a blue chenille body. I like them better than thread neck jigs too, but use both at times.

    Only bummer is I lost the bottom one this morning on a snag. Got a few, but it was slow in my spots today and came in at 10AM, but maybe this afternoon it will be better.

    I like #4. Those flash strips work really well.
    And I like the paint color combo on the head.

    better send me one of each so I can do some real-world testing on them - then I'll be able to give you good, solid, objective opinions

    Seriously though, they all look great - wish I had the patience to do that kind of detailed work. Nice looking jigs - all of them. If I had to choose one over the others, I'd probably choose #3 because it's got a more familiar look to it.
