Caught a crappie on a pink San Ron Worm. May tie up some other colors. Simple to make. Going to try some Toothpick Minnows, too. Bob

I tie crappy flies all the time. It's easier than trying to make them...What. Crah-[censored]?
Oh. Never mind.
Good looking flies, Moon. I've been meaning to buy some jig hooks. Do you have an online source?

Yes, i do. jig hooks for tying flies, Allen fly fishing has 60 degree, barbless jig hooks, size 8 to 18, 90 degree jig hooks, size 1# to 5/0 for bigger streamer flies. For crappies jigs, i like to use sickle hooks with walley head. Crazy Angler has very good deal. There are so many choices, i am not sure what application do you intend to use. Hope i have more info.

Moon, Thank you. I'm looking for fly sized hooks, sized about 4 to 18, so the ones from Allen will get me going in the right direction.
