Thanks for the comments, I appreciate it. Just keep tying and catching fish and they'll get better and better.
I only use no collar heads, unless I'm tying bucktail jigs that are 3/8th oz. and up, and then it's a collared head, not a barb.
I hear ya bout the Vols, can't wait til college ball kicks off again. Was born in Nashville and hope to move back near there soon when my health allows it.
Anyway, thanks again for the comments, and I hope they'll put some fish in the boat for you.
