These actually came out looking pretty good. I can't wait to fish the slips with them.



Then there is this one that is inspired by the infamous black emerald shiner -





This was my first try at it and the gray doesn't show very well, but I am going to keep at it.

Come on vacation!! I am ready to get these wet.

Great job, all the way around the board!

One thing I've noticed is your consistency continually improving... I know that's the hard part for most guys. GOOD job, Chris!

They do look good, and don't worry about the gray its one of those look at the results type jigs. The last 2 weeks I have sent about 350 jigs to Miss. that is on #2 sickle hook, lemon yellow tail, candy pink head, and using baitfish or emerald shiner body. You never know till you fish it but sure not much to look at.

You just never know Larry!! We only make them pretty for other fisherman, NOT for the fish. Some of my first ties with pipe cleaner bodies caught a ton of fish...I laugh when I look at them now.

Thank you Roger! I found out today I am off next Thursday and Friday....so, that means it is about time to head east a little ways. I may do a little scouting trip Monday and I will let you know if they have moved in yet.
