After a big rain I tie a Hot Orange marabou tail and they eat it big time!

Happy Birthday buddy!

Maybe now that all this rain had finished I can try soon! However the lake has come up 2 feet from this rain!

Skip

Thank you all, I appreciate you guys!

Also think this week will get my from sonar fixed and back in the water!

Amip

Thank you guys, much appreciated!

have had trouble with my new last years sonar unit that keeps cutting off o its own and found out it’s not getting enough volts. Will get fixed in the next...

Wind has been bad and the crappie I have found here have been in 12’ of water ever since they dropped the lake 2’! Sorry I didn’t see this before you came!

Nice looking jigs!

Crazy Angler dyes that chenille after he gets it from Danville! So you will not find it from anyone else!

Maybe just me, but I like the Fame Red a lot and I believe it has Florescent properties too. I have used it for all my years of tying, like 18 years now.
you need a different red to get that blood...

Welcome to the site and board!

Looks like your off to a great start!

Nice!

Looks good, but would consider it more for shallow water like 10’ or less so the colors will stay as they are!

Thank you all, I still am a bit in shock that I have not really had any pain from this surgery for the first time in many surgeries that I have had. Lufkin has Dedicated Orthopedics and they have...

Sounds like you’re doing great! I am at 6 1/2 weeks after and yesterday I was able to get rid of the sling/immobilizer and therapist came and I could life my arm almost straight up, like 170 degrees....

Monday I am having shoulder replacement surgery on my right shoulder. Anyway after a few months maybe I get back so I can type.

Good luck guys and catch some crappie!

Skip

I just hang the tail in my garage until it’s dried. I do put salt and borax on the meat end before I hang it.

it make very good tail material!

Skip

Looks like you could use some Estaz Grande for that!

I cover the swivel with tin foil and then take it off after. Some use heat shrink tubing to do that, but I don’t see an easy way to take it back off, also some just dip the swivel in water before...

Yes, over the years of tying I use to tie a lot of Bucktail jigs for guys! Some like it better than anything else! I like feathers, but also will use a hair type jigs sometimes. I do find the smaller...

Thanks guys! SuperDave I started tying that color combo a long time ago for some guys from up North that went to Florida every year for crappie. They were not underspins though and were just regular...

PM me or send an email! Just for example I tear off the barbules from the stem and use just them mostly. I make a stack of them until I have enough and then I pinch the stack about where I want to...

I have tied a lot of 1/32 Oz Pony heads and don't have that issue, but I still use the old Matuzo #4 Stickle hooks.
