    Default Some of my jigs, need opinions


    Any comments/critiques of the jigs or the photos themselves? I'm gonna find something to use as a background next time I take them.

    The legend is head color/body color/tail color.

    All are 1/16th oz with #2 sickle hooks.

    This is pretty much a standard jig, with painted eyes. The pupil got smudged a bit but you can see the idea.

    hot orange/coffee brown/yellow chartreuse

    Special two-tone/speckled heads:


    white and hot orange/white/bright orange


    green chartreuse and pumpkin brown/coffee brown/green chartreuse


    yellow chartreuse and hot orange/bright orange/bright orange


    yellow chartreuse and hot orange/bright orange/yellow chartreuse


    green chartreuse and pumpkin brown/olive/green chartreuse


    yellow chartreuse and black/yellow and black/yellow chartreuse


    green chartreuse and hot pink/green chartreuse/hot pink AKA "Electric Chicken"

    My site's not completely done yet, but will be up soon, so if you'd like to order any of these or another pattern, just PM me.

    Those are some great looking jigs. IMO I feel that on a couple of them the body is a little bit too long. It does look like those would be some great dock shooters. Way to go.

    Thanks. I do tend to make longer bodies than most, but it's only about 1-2 wraps of chenille difference. I can make them shorter if someone wants them to be, but that's just the way I started doing it.
    They are great for shooting docks, as they have bigger hooks, but work just fine for casting or using them under a float. I do like smaller hooks for bream though.

    Smoothlures,

    Those are some great looking jigs. Great fish catchin' colors.

    I've thought about getting back into tying, but lack the time right now.

    Seeing your jigs gives me the fever again. A trip to BPS is in order to check it out.

    Thanks for sharing your talent and jigs with us.
