    Default A jig a day keeps the winter blues away


    Alright gentlemen, I’ve came up with some ideas and I tied several jigs today. I’m going to post 1 jig a day until my ideas run out. Criticism is appreciated. Name:  IMG_1503.jpg

    Usually I like the chenille to go all the way to the jig head. But the small red thread neck on that jig is a nice touch.

    I like to think of the red as gills hopefully it will lead to a few more strikes

    That jig is going to be one of your favorites. I’ve tied them for a while in 3 sizes black heads are another option. Very nice work and the redneck is a good touch, I’ve never used that, but I’ll give it a shot now. Another chenille I want to suggest is the gray/silver fleck wooly bugger chenille. Gives a fuller look and still has some flash.

    That's a nice one! Being as I'm new at this, I'd say it's a pretty good fish catcher...and my only critique would be to add more wraps of the red thread.

    If you tie something you don't like anymore under the body, the silver chinelle will look plump like a tasty minnow . Did it on this Name:  20200217_161606.jpg
