Made this one for my daughter. Body shape is off but that's ok. Was a really hard one to do because of the akward shape of an angelfish.  Reference picture

Great work Cowboy, but seeing that reference picture reminds me of something years ago when I was helping other learn to tie jigs. What I see is a fish that is blue with yellow and black marking. What do you guys see? It has a lot to do with how the color in a jigs comes out but we most times do not see it the same.

Thanks fellas! Yeah Larry we definitely don't see it the same. I see black white and yellow. Possibly small traces of blue but not much

On average, your heart beats 100,000 times a day. One day, one of those heartbeats will be your last. Then what?
The answer is found in Jesus Christ who said "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." John 10:10
