21 degrees out with a 25mph NW wind howling. Darn if the fish were wanting to eat. belly spinner and maribou was the winning combo.

Finally got some wool roving in a few colors to tie. Need some R&D time on the water this week to do some product testing. Quick to tie I really like the way it shapes Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Working on some smaller jigs as a second jig for slow brush pile winter fishing. Will tie on somewhat different colors until the fish tell me what they want. Sometimes it is an even catch rate Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For some reason the blue Mylar produces in a wide array of water colors. If I can't get bit on a normal color for me I tie on the blue and have success. Both lakes I fished this week were turned over Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

1/16th and 1/32. Had some old rabbit laying around. Just enough to get a few tied up for some fall night fishing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And real tough on my runners. Looks like I need to pour and paint some chart, orange, blacks and white ASAP. Got a package from crazy angler with some new body colors. I think these are going to be great late summer and fall patterns. Tied up at least five of each after work tonight. Sent...

Told the girls that I needed jigs for some upcoming trips. They picked colors for me after I got the main color done. Then they wanted to put eyes on them all. They did a fine job and picked one combo that I never thought of but I really like Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Since my job allows for several days off weekly I get to have quality time with my daughters. Today the middle one fished with me and after dinner we are watching baseball and tying jigs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Along with crappie and whites I have been catching some bonus fish. Had one gar at 40" at the boat got the jig out of his chompers and he flopped off the pliers. The sucker on a jig was a first for me. At this point I need a common carp and drum to complete the Missouri Native Trash Fish GRAND...

Working on some gill jigs for pre-spawn fish Might have a little too much tail we shall see. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

got some hooks in from CA on Saturday morning by that evening I was up and tying some that I had ordered. five 1/16 and five 1/32 same pattern each bag. Headed to fish some of those Western US clear water lakes.

cleaning out the box of loose heads before I get an order of hooks in to pour several hundred. Let my 8 and 6y/o assist in picking colors for the heads. Will use all the horse heads Friday when we go trolling at the local lake.

I tied some jigs. Gave up on it last year when I did 10 months of home remodel and got my decoy business going. Tied up some jigs last week and forgot that I enjoyed it. Hope to keep on tying and fishing this year Tom

My buddy took these a couple weeks ago at Truman lake in Mo. http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t156/moh2odog/fishing/DSC_0100.jpg

for some hybrids!!!! poured a bunch of 3/8oz sea horse heads with 5/o stainless heavy hooks and got them painted in chart. most of the blade colors are brass or gold willows in 3.5 to 4 since the water we fish is dirtiesh. Have been after them two other times with mixed results. Both times I...

found my ride, headed to Truman shortly to try the hybrids with the girls for Fathers Day. Going to start saving for that SI graph now.

it might take me until late summer to catch one with this weight. 14 7/8" full of eggs. Had her ugly stik bent over pretty good. she only boated one fish but it will be enough to feed her easily for dinner.

My buddies who I tied up a gross of pony jigs kepts sending me picture texts last week on their trip. word was they whipped them without remorse. second cast of the trip I was told this was the average way the fish hit the jig.

I think they will work 1/64th on a #8 hook. I am sure they are a copy of somebodies pattern or name I am just using what I have and think a gill might hammer. Am thinking under a float and pulled over some beds it should get hit. That or long poled around rocks for some baitfish for flathead lines.

Hunter 7711 brought his 800 different colors of powder paint down and we got busy on some heads I had poured up. What a good morning of discussing techniques, types of fishing, areas to fish and appreciation of the outdoors. I promise you Gary it won't be the last time we get together and...
