Wow! Very nice natural looking jigs. I can see those producing good in a clear lake. :cool:

Hackle tail... Are you wrapping the hackle around the shank and then laying it down to the back with thread wraps? I don't make alot of hackle tails and think those look really good.

I cut the feather up and pinch the pieces between my forefinger and thumb and tie them down.
