Thread: A Little Tougher

I had a wonderful trip on the fourth. The only down side was the durability, or lack of, of the jig bodies I was using. Sometimes 2 fish was all I got and it was shredded beyond use. They’re big as a minute so it doesn’t take much in the right place to make totally useless. A while back I went to BPS and picked up some micro chenille in bright yellow and had some in a dark olive. These are what I came up with to try to copy what I’ve been using. They are Bobby Garlands Itty Bitty Slab Slayers and are only an inch and a quarter long. The hand ties are 1/64 with a #8 sickle hook that’s black chrome. I’ll give em a shot next time out and let ya know.
