A couple of herds of micro ghost minnows...

[DrCrappie]

Here's a whole herd of ghost minners, of different sizes

1/32nd oz. 1/64th oz and 1/80th oz
The 1/80th oz ones have a flashabou wrapped body, coated with some CA, the other sizes have some shiny flashy chenille...all of them have one piece, on either side, of holographic flashabou...



I also tied up a few in different colors...now I just gotta get out there, again, and try 'em ALL out...The blue one works, caught a couple on it (it and the yellow/white one are both tied on 1/124th oz jig heads), the green one didn't get bit...but I don't think I tried it long enough, I quit trying after the original ghost minnows started slaying 'em...!

Thin to win - great bunch of tyes!!

 

[DrCrappie]

Thanks for the replies guys...:cheers: the 'craft fur' I use really looks good in the water...A tiny bit of rod to movement and the fibers really move in an enticing manner! Almost like Red's jigs! I still need to get me some wool and incorporate it into my ghost minnows!

A nice looking school of ghost jigs.

Dr. Crappie.....how is the RnD on this style?

 

[DrCrappie]

So far...awesome! I have a little change I want to incorporate into the design...but that might take some time...need some of 'Red's wool'.....I also have another idea that I've incorporated, but haven't had a chance to try them out yet...the patterns you see are all big producers...they've caught, LMB, SMB, gasper goo, bream of all types, catfish, hybrids, sandies and crappie

 

[plateboater]

Thanks!

Have 2 different fox tails artic fox and one a blueish with black tips I might try on some of those.

 

[DrCrappie]

The blue over white would prolly work quite well...Make sure you put one piece of holographic flashabou on each side as the lateral line...

 

[Fatman]

Thanks for the tip!!!

Really like all the color combos

 

[DrCrappie]

Thanks lost pole...I would imagine the color combos are endless, and could be tied to suit your lake/stream/pond/tank or whatever water your fishing in...I really like the gray over white the best...it really mimics the bait-fish (ghost minnow) very well! Emerald shiners would be easy to replicate as well...I really like the jigs that look like the actual fish...but that's just me!

 

[AtticaFish]

Those would get nailed quickly in my waters. I also love using thin craft fur ties on small jigs - it has a very fluid motion. Wool on such light heads might dramatically slow the fall... but at the same time turn it into a fat ghost instead of your thin profile. I am betting they would work well though.

My favs are the green/white and yellow/white. Would be first on my line anyway. Excellent ties.

 

[DrCrappie]

Thanks AtticaFish :cheers:
Yeah, the wool will need to be trimmed a bit as I really don't want them too fat... I would think the green/white ones would kinda mimic an emerald shiner...I had a double rig with the blue/white and the green/white...the blue/white one got hit a few times but the green one...nuthin' then I tried the gray/white and that is pretty much what I've stuck with because it produced amazingly well! I still haven't tried the pink/black or the yellow/white ones...yet...
