    Come on Skeet, you have never seen a tube jig head? I bet you have!

    Nice bugs, have seen this kind of tying on tube jig heads before and have a bunch of old one laying around some place and I should make something out them them other than the nothing they are doing now and the last 14 years or so, lol! What a waste to have these and just let them sit so I really should do something with them and think I will. Maybe you have motivated me, but we shall see if I actually do it or not, lol!

    Yes, I've seen some similar before but not with the ridge shown in the pic. Most are round and parallel til they get to the taper. Probably wouldn't make a hoot of difference. Never did anything serious with any of them. I have some bench time slated for this weekend and have no clue where to begin. It's been quite a while. I'll post if they aren't laughable.

    I see what you mean now, but I didn't pay that any mind.
