    Looks like a #4 hook you’re using?

    Personally I like marabou over pretty much anything in spring, but early spring when the water is still pretty cold, I believe kip tail may be better. Once it warms and they feel like chasing food, there is nothing IMHO that has better action than marabou, but maybe too much before the water warms a tad? Both work for sure though and Kip probably will last longer than marabou, however I know marabou on a Roadrunner will still catch fish after 125 fish, but it's time to retire it too, lol!

    Rabbit beats marabou in movement all day every day, even on the Hyde, but I was just asking from a tying standpoint.
    If it’s on a hook I’ll catch a fish with it.
    Can’t remember ever tying with kip and think I might give it a shot.

    I also have a lot of Rabbit, but still like and use the bou more. Have tied a good bit of it though and do like it a lot.

    I like the colors, and the ties are well done. I also cast a vote for the boo, but have used a bunch of kip also. Both get it done.

    MS, I believe that you will like the kip once you tie with it. There is a little learning curve but even I did well with it. Also try the less is more thought. I’ve seen kip jigs catch fish with only about 10 hairs.
