I'm sure this has been asked before but I was wondering if anyone has good tips for keeping on eyes? I like the walleye style heads and powdercoat but the eyes seem to fall off after a day of fishing. I currently just go over them with Sally Hansens hard as nails when I go over my thread...

I was bored and after getting back on here, you guys gave me some inspiration to dig through my stuff I had put away. 1/16 head #4 hook with powdercoat blue and then holographic. Not sure the chinelle name. Some unknown white fur. And larva lace angel hair. Also 2 pieces of blue tinsel

First I used a 1/8 walleye style jig with 4mm eyes and custom sweet pea color. Then I wrapped like you would start any jig.

Like the title says this is easy tying but it seems to be a fish catcher for me. Can't get any simpler and it works in southern Illinois and KY

Does anyone trade powder paints. I bought some pounds through the years and will never use it all. I'm thinking of ordering some more too. I have a few custom mixes and ones I don't use. I was just wondering if anyone wanted to trade a couple ounces of each colors or if there's a place to do...

This maybe a beginner question but I never tie this style and usually like the thread necks. I have some 1/8 ballhead jigs and I want to tie marabou on them so it looks like the leech on a egg, or a salmon style. I can get the thread to be pretty small on them but not invisible. I feel like if...

Made a tying table out of a folding tv table. I got the folding table at goodwill for $5. Slapped a couple boards on it I had laying around. Put the screws from the top down. You could use plywood but I had those. Laid some wool fabric down with spray glue then tucked and trimmed the edges and...

Does anyone or any group of people here get together to tie at a library or community center? I remember my grandpa used to be a member of a wood carving group where they just sat around and did their thing, told lies and helped out new guys starting out. I wondered if something like that...
