Bluegill bugs

[OKSTATEjiggy]

Here's a bug jig that I tied for a recent swap:

jighead: 1/64
tail: red hackle barbs and two black goose biots
body: black wabbit fur
legs: black rubber

and here is a damsel/dragonfly nymph:

jighead: 1/32
tail: 3 olive grizzly cape hackle tips
abdomen: medium olive chenille
wing case: pheasant tail fibers
thorax: medium olive chenille and 1 olive grizzly hackle

Can I get this thread and the thread in the crappie section moved to the general jig pic/recipe forum? I think that's where I should have posted in the first place. :blush:

Top one resembles a beadhead rubber leg helgramite imitation that i used to use in Va for smallies. Man that was a killer fly in the spring when the helgi's hatched
