    Default what is the orientation of V-cut hackle feathers>


    Hey, I'm a moron LOL, just started using hackle feathers cut into Vs, are they supposed to look like a V from the top or from the side when making a tail. I have tried both ways and they still don't look right, what am I doing wrong?

    thanks

    I like his jigs Takeum , very well built for a 1/16 head. I tie some tiny ones that have very little on them and deliver.

    This jig had caught about 50 fish at the time of the pic. Tied on a 1/48 sickle it’s one of my favorites. Chartreuse or red thread collar does the job.
