    Really it doesn't matter how many you have tied, it's more what is next and how well can I tie them and of course are you still enjoying it, know I am.

    Thanks Skip, It is the "what is next" and that new different jig that drives em nuts we are always trying to perfect.

    Sharing is the fun part, I've posted several time about this but it is fun. If I get some stuff I am not using I'll bag them up and go to the local kids fishing derby and share them there. Kids love free stuff. Just keep on tying.

    I am in the same boat. Giving and teaching especially to the young ones is awesome.

    I have this much. 1/16 oz, 1/8 oz and a 1/4 oz box. Gradually adding to them. Working on narrowing down which ones work better as I don’t believe in having a thousand different shapes and sizes when a select few get the job done. How many will it narrow down to? Probably 999!!! My 1/8 oz box needs some work.

    Like the organization shown the Doc. Always like your ties, nice work. I couldn’t have an eighth ounce box, don’t use them much down here. I’d have to tie for a week if I went back to TN for a weeks fishing. Now sixteenth and thirty seconds I could use, they get frequent play. Now the tiny box I have to hold myself back from over stuffing it. It’s shallow and grabby here so most times when I get hung, I just go after it and get it back. I use the same jig for a long time. I used to give away jigs at the ramp regularly in TN but not so much here. Lots of trolling and minnow fishin and folks just set in their ways.

    I haven't been tying very long, maybe a couple years altogether, but mostly just here and there. I will say the more I tie, the better they look to me anyway. Here's my current two box's and my latest work. 132 hatchet heads, and 1/16 oz ball heads. All in chartreuse and black weave.
    Only second or third time trying to do a weave. All in all there's just over 400 jigs between the two box's.Name:  20210426_080019.jpg

    Thank you for the kind words Pie Guy. Hoping to get them wet this week-end...

    I just started tying back in January. I've got 800-1000 in the boat and tie most evenings. It is very satisfying to tie a jig and then have a crappie slam it the next morning. Name:  bug.jpg
