    I spout off about some that have worked for me and my fav’s. Well my box is low and I’ve had to replace some so I started with the first fav I ever tied. I haven’t changed it in years and it still works as good as it did when I first tied it. I’ve given slight variations of it to several folks around the country and they like em too. I did a few pics of the construction so y’all know how to make it your own. The head starts as a collared 1/32 , #4 and I remove the collar. Name:  F78A2749-15C4-4A20-A2E2-335EB7CE02D0.jpg

    Next the base and flash which is olive today, but use what you like best. I like to leave it a tad longer than the feather, and the rubber I forgot on this one a tad longer than that.Name:  CE7E01CE-1D57-4870-B8E0-A43D6009F2FE.jpg

    Then the feather and the collar, which I try to keep short as possible but this one got a bit longer than I like. Call it my rusty nature, it’ll get better.

    Here’s another that’s more like what I use lately which is tied on a 1/43 #6. Mostly I use the same head on a #8 but this was next in line.

    Here’s what I finished with. Back is toast but the jig box looks better. Nothing fancy but for where I fish and the junk I fish around, they’ll do fine. Thanks for taking a look.
