I do believe those will get er done!
Ive got a mold somewhere for making roadrunners I need to dig it out. Black. chartreuse/black
yellow/black and pinks is what I use most. blacks just work good in my lake in winter

Good Job well done and made in the US OF A and TEXAS at that!

Nice jigs.

Looks like you loaded up on plenty of materials but I hate to say it is not enough. You will keep adding to your materials to tie your next jigs with new color combos. I started tying my own two weeks ago and have been to BPS at least seven more times for more/different materials. It is addicting.

Make sure you go to the jig tying section at the top of the crappie section so you can get some more ideas. They tie some awesome jigs and are very helpful.

This reminds me that I need to go to BPS at lunch for a fourth jig box to hold all the jigs I've made this past week. loco_2

I order the stuff from barlow'stackle.com and crazyangler.com. I saw all of the stuff and man I didn't know where to start. Only thing I wasn't happy with was the powder paint I had bought it was a gloss paint. So it didn't show up well on the heads, but I called and they said I could replace with just the regular colors. So turned out good. Im west texas only thing we have is academy. They don't carry tying material.
