I want to dress up my Jig Hook Minnow fly with Bluegill/Sunfish color versions, using magnum barred zonker strips shown below. (1 thru 5) What are your recommendations for color combinations with various ESTAZ body colors? Thanks in advance, George Glazener

Is that the Barracuda I see you tying on? How do you like it?
I am seriously thinking about one.

For ESTAZ colors think about sky blue,orange, and chartreuse  . That is where I would start till the fish tell me otherwise
