    Foxy Momma

    1/16oz head, Arctic fox for the tail with some black ulta chenille and a grizzly hackle collar. The fox hair and the grizzly hackle came from Toadfrog for some hooks and I can tell the fox is excellent and the grizzly hackle is really really nice. This is the first time I've used fox but I can...

    Honest critique of a new jig

    I'm sorry the pic is bad but I'm hoping you can see enough to give me an honest assesment of this jig style. It is a bucktail, it has some bright orange silicone strands tied in but I found something I decided to try and it also helps me use all my material. What I tried was making a "muddler"...

    Darice craft hait?

    For those that use this, is it the luxury fur or the stiff ? Where do you get it at? We just had a Michaels open near me and they have a ton of stuff but very little in the way of stuff like this. I'm looking for a less expensive alternative to the Hareline extra select craft fur.

    Natural bugger

    I just couldn't resist, I got the idea as I orgnized my new stuff (Thanks Toadfrog) and I thought about other patterns and then I saw my brown with red flake jig head and I had a brown hackle feather put aside because it had this red tint and I thought, why not. I used a 1/16 head and tied in...

    Black and Yellow

    Well I think this will be the last of the buggers for awhile, I wanted to get a handle on being able to tie them different ways from leaving a long tag end and palmering the hackle from the top down and then using the tag to secure the hackle. I tried tying the hackle from the bottom up tying in...

    Precious Metal

    Fatman painted some jigheads with new penny and orange glitter and I really liked how it turned out and it got me thinking. I took metallic copper and added gold hologram glitter and I did one with metallic gold using the same gold hologram and I liked how it turned out. The pics are lousy but...

    Halloween Bugger

    This is another wooly bugger pattern, 1/16oz with a larger marabou tail with silver flash. I tied in some black ultra chenille and used the very last of my orange hackle, in fack I wanted it to be a little fuller but I only had part of a feather left so I made it a little sparse.

    Luck O' the Irish

    Orange and green on this one. I hate the pic as the head looks like powder blue but it isn't, it is a pale green that Itried to make that would end up a shade lighter than baby bass green but I did go a touch too heavy on the white. This is a 1/16oz head, I tied some lime green with green flake...

    First wooly bugger jig

    This is my first attempt at a wooly bugger pattern, I know it is kind of bunched up but the pic actually makes it look worse than it is but I now know how to do this. This was made on a 3/32oz head with a size 1 hook, the tail is black marabou with a little silver flash. I used black ultra...

    Being nice pays off!!

    Well it looks as if being a nice person is paying dividends not that I was looking for it in the first place. I got new neighbor awhile ago and I found out during the summer that the kid they have loves fishing so I helped him out giving him his first casting rod, and I've been making jigs for...

    Bunny Boo Boo and the Mutant Craw

    I know, I know, the bunny boo boo name was in bad taste but I couldn't help it. Anyway, both jigs are 3/32oz size 1 hooks, the top jig is colored what I call "Mouse", it is silver with white mixed in and a little black and purple flake, just a very little bit of the flake. I tied in white...

    Fish Hair ?

    Has anyone here ever used it? It comes in different lengths and colors and the description is synthetic bucktail and I was wondering if someone used it if they could tell me how good it actually is. I likt the fact that you can get different lengths and the way it is bundled, it would make it so...

    Peanutbutter Bunny

    I was organizing some of my tying supplies and as I was putting some stuff in a rubbermaid bin I dropped a bag of tan rabbit zonkers so since I just did a few blue bunnys I thought why not do some in tan since I have that color paint. 1/16 size 2 hook painted peanutbutter (pumpkin brown with...

    Blue Bunny

    Here is what I call blue bunny, this is on a 1/16oz jig head painted candy blue. I have no reason why but this is a pattern I have had a lot of success with on bigger jigs so I thought why not try it on a smaller offering and see how does. I made it with Spirit River two toned jailhouse rabbit...

    Slightly different

    These are both 1/16oz black jigheads with size 2 hooks, what I did different was I made hackle collars on both but insead of spinning on the hackle and leaving it stick out I pushed it back and tied over it to make a thread neck collar while the hackle sweeps back over the chenille body making...

    Biggest jig size for trout one would use?

    What is the biggest size jig you trout gurus would use on a regular basis to get trout? The reason I ask is my neighbors friend spied the marabou jigs I made for the neighbors son and asked me if I could tie some up for trout. Of course I was in a hurry and didn't have time to talk but I said it...
