Congrats your ties did an great job. Made some memories too
I tied MANY jigs before ever getting one wet, this summer the boys and I have been fishing exclusively with the jigs that I have tied. They have been excellent! I have two little boys now who just bring along the crawlers to play with in the boat when they get bored.
I also tied up some to take on a trip to Lake Tanneycomo. I only caught 1 fish on a jig but many more on PowerBait.
Luckily the biggest fish of the trip came on a jig I tied!
Had to release because it was not quite a legal length fish (20") but I would have probably let it go then too!
Thanks for all of the help I received from the seasoned tiers on here! I plan to keep up the hobby and really enjoy using my jigs!

The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass along
Those green sunfish sure are hard on my jigs! I figure if I can catch 20 fish on one jig they will hold up to most other fish for a lot longer!
Good job and the boys will remember things like this for their whole life. Nice job dad!
On them bream (at least I all all of that family bream) they are really hard on anything you put in front of them. Feathers they will tear up on a regular basis, but if you catching them it will not matter, just tie on another jig.
