After playing around with the new palmering technique for a good part of the afternoon I called it quits and surfed the web a bit and then retired to watch a little television. I wasn't going to tie anything until the neighbor kid started banging on my door asking for another black marabou jig, I gave him a bunch of jigs I made as he is into fishing and at 12 years old he is only starting to fish lures so I help him out since his dad is more hunter than angler. Well it turns out he has been pounding some nice bass anbd huge pickerel with the marabou jigs I tied for him, his dad had pics on his cell phone for me and told me that out of the 4 of them fishing his son was the only one using the jigs and was the only one catching big fish so I tied some more up and this one I decided to take a pic of. I call it dark shadows since I didn't use any flash and kept the entire jig dark. It is a 3/32oz head with a size 1 hook, a dark olive regular cut zonker strip which you can't really see, 2 black marabou feathers and size 6 black chenille.
