After having some major health issues I have finally gotten to the point that I can mold, paint, and tie jigs again. One or two dozen a day is about my limit right now, but that's better than not being able to sit at the workbench ! This does wonders for my well-being. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/12/full-110306-76286-win_20201203_13_51_02_pro.jpg)

Arctic fox. I use bucktail for the accent colors. Arctic fox does WAY better than maribou and the other synthetics. Much more buoyant and has more action although some folks seem to be fine with maribou. Sometimes good tails are extremely hard to find depending on the fur markets. Fortunately I have plenty right now.

One or two dozen a day is about my limit right now, but that's better than not being able to sit at the workbench ! This does wonders for my well-being. I can relate with doing what I can with major back issues and congratulate you with staying with it. Your talents are God given. Keep up the great work and know that others appreciate it and look forward to seeing more of your work. Really like the Texas Red's. Merry Christmas 🎅🏼

Thank you for the kind words. Everything I have and my continued life is simply bestowed by the grace of God. Very simply put ... I almost died a few years back. 30 days in the hospital and a loss of 30 pounds. Docs had no idea what to do. A transfer to another facility and a specialist saved my life. Every day is a blessing.

The zeal of people here to kick those unlike them is something to behold.What this all about ?  Didn't notice any kicking occurring. Just Hair Jig showing an expertise. May God bless !!  Happy Pearl Harbor Day !!!!!!!

[quote=outfishdya] What this all about ? That is in his signature line. Also is a quote from another party. Likely something from a while back and not pertaining to this thread.
