If you opened your box and these were the jigs you had, which one would you grab first?

Most of my tying sessions end with me losing my focus and tying something random or odd. Tonight was no different. This is my last tie of the night. Im not sure what to call it but I think I like it. The main hook and the stinger are #8 I think. The body is White chenille and marabou with bead...

1/16 Minnow head. Tail:White Marabou and red krystal flash. Body:White Chenille

To avoid having to transfer a bunch of thread on bigger spools to smaller ones I started to try to make a bobbin for bigger spools. I then thought it might be easier to modify a bobbin I already had. I removed the black hood and drilled a hole in the bottom of a 35mm film canister. I used...

I realized yesterday that i have been tying alot of jigs with different color combos but I really didn't have hardly any of my Bread and Butter combos. Black/White, White/Silver, All White, All Black. Anyway I picked some stuff up on my way home yesterday. i've got to get some heads painted and...

Stopped in to visit my parents today. I was telling my mom that I had to stop and pick up some tying thread and stuff from the fly shop on my way home. She told me she had just got a good deal on a bunch of embroidery thread on ebay but she said for some reason it wouldn't feed or work right on...

I was having some nice Springtime dreams last night but woke up to all this White Crap outside. Its a dang Mess! A little bit of Ice and a foot of new snow with more coming down. Trees down all over the place. We still have power but several places around are without. I'm going back to sleep:D

Got bored tonight and mixed up a new color nail polish. Started with a bottle of sally's clear topcoat. Added some blue and green glitter then started adding some color. first a little white then added a little purple and some gunmetal blue then added just a little black. I'm glad I mixed a...

All tied on #6 hooks. Used black plastic bead chain for eyes. Two blue ones are tied with tinsel chenille for the body and black rubber skirt material for legs. Bodies on the others are foam strips from a white body scrubber thing my wife "Used" to have ;) Colored two yellow ones with marker...

The weather is crazy here today. Snowing and Sleeting heavily along with thunder and lightning. They say were not supposed to get too much but the last time it thundered and lightning during a snowstorm we got Buried. Got a pot of coffee brewin, some soup on the stove and now I'm going to sit...

I have several ties that are really meant to be fished with a fly rod. Streamers,Hoppers,Bead flies ect... I plan on getting a new fly rod at some point. My old one was stolen a couple years back but thats a story for another time. :( I primarily bank fish with light weight spin tackle on small...

I have always liked the look of a clouser minnow or other ties using barbell eyes or bead chain eyes but I haven't really ever tied any. Tied these this morning. thought they might be good for the crappie and gills this spring. I have no Idea what kind of hooks these are but they are short shank...

My best friend and I only get to get together like once or twice a month. Today we spent the day at the farm hollerin for coyotes and looking for deer sheds. Then spent the evening trying to win some money at the Casino. Let me sum things up for ya. Had Fun But..... Shot None..... Found...

Lead wrapped shaft with clear bead head. Tied in a tuff of white wool and 8 strands of hopper yellow/black silly legs along with a couple wraps of brown/black chenille.

Decided to tie a few with these clear faceted beads I had. Also played around with some of them by adding spinner blades to add some extra flash. Yes these are very light but will be fished with a splitshot and/or under a float this spring. I need to add eyes to all of them cause the clear...

Went to the In-laws for a gatherin today. Something I'm not always Excited about. :) Anyways we had a heck of a meal. I stuffed my face with Fried Chicken and all the fixins. After dinner i was telling my Father in-law about the jigs I was tying and he asked me if I wanted a lead pot and a jig...

Going to have to tie several of these. Might be my go-to spinners this spring. Think they'll get bit?

I thought the tutorial by AtticaFish on SplitShot Jig Heads was pretty cool. I had never tried it because I didn't have any round splitshots, only the removable kind. Figured out last night that using the same technique but with a removable splitshot, you can make a pretty decent looking minnow...

Added a few of these :jig: to the arsenal tonight.
