    Default new to the forum


    hey guys, been reading all yalls posts for a while and recently started tying my own jigs. I was wondering what you guys felt had a better action, rabbit, bucktail or marabou? I am looking forward to learning a lot from you guys that have been at this for a while. You should have seen the first one I tied.... hideous. haha. thanks again you guys.
