preacher style jigs

i like the look of the cumberland pro prayer jig. the trick will be to downsize it for crappie

I got bored and added a pretty little collar on it.

The pictured jig has heavy wraps from trying to bind all that material. Looks to me like the hook would be choked. I’ll make another and see if I can get more fluff without filling in the gap too much.

I don't see a real problem with the gap at all. You may not get the roof of the mouth but your not looking for tarpon. Keep bringing on the great work,

i would not use chenille for the body . use more craft hair but tie it in facing forward over the tail wraps then fold it back so it is near the bend. would give a wider baitfish profile. there are some nice videos by gunner brammer on utube , tying his predator series of flies and jigs
