I love the look, but I can't tell if it blocks the hook. How do you tie in the feathers? V over a tip?
I ordered some size 8 hooks this past week and decided to try some patterns using them on 1/32 heads for a friend. I’m not satisfied with the stripes and am anxiously awaiting some smaller diameter chenille to arrive to see if it works better.
As always, all constructive feedback is greatly appreciated!

Calling fishing a hobby is like calling brain surgery a job.
Nice jigs, I like the stripes. Look on ebay for some micro chenille. Some of what I bought was flashy looking and other was just tiny and both work well on the tiny jigs. Happy hunting.
Creativity is just intelligence fooling around
I don't know about the fish,but I sure like them.I can't imagine the gills turning their nose up at them.
Here are a few in a larger format (1/16oz #4 hooks)
