I have a larva jig mold . Got to thinking what in the world could I do with this to make it more versatile . So without carving around on my mold like a novice .

A lot of folks put stripes on feathers and hair with markers . I had time to dink around and do this .Having lived through the 60's I still remember the tie dyeing thing . You can only do a clump of feathers about as big around as a pencil (dry weight) or the die does not penetrate very well . I...

Week to the Doc 2 weeks back . Trying to do something about the arthritis that was stopping me from tying and hampering me from doing a lot of things . I did some research and found that sometimes an antibiotic can help . I requested it . So far it is doing wonders . I have more energy , hands...

Dug around pulled out a couple molds not to many use these days . Did a little painting with the old brush . Had to use the air brush on the blades though . Its automotive paint . Ball Head and Tear Drop Spinners gotta love'em .

Decided to tie some buck tail on some buzz heads . Added a flash blade instead of a clacker . Hand painted and all .

Well here goes . My first attempt at making a bait using the skin from a fish . This is a brooder minnow complete with the head . The center core is bass wood . The second joint has hips on it to catch the flow of water down the the sides of the lure making the tail flip back and forth like it...

Here is one for Ya . I know what it is . I know who made it . The only question I have is . Does anyone here know what this is .

Did up a skull jig . Some people have pet rocks I have a pet jig . Call him bones .

Ok you guy's wanted pics . here is a home made job . The jig head goes through the back and it is retrieved in a backwards motion . The tail flaps underneath the craws head . Bear built the real craw now I want him to do a style like this in the real craw.

Thought I'd do a bigger lure . Tying the small stuff then going to the big stuff is a whole lot like going from the snooker table to a pool table , Know whut a meen ! The biggest I've done is a 1 3/4 oz. This one is 3/4 oz.

Well I was going to rest today . Unfortunately that didn't happen . You guy's helped me with the fly patterns for my attorney who knows little about fishing . Today he calls for jigs . If this happens again I'm going to be looking for one of you to pick up the business . Thanks to the members...
