Sweet jig......that is going to catch a fish!! How does the badger hair look in the water?

 

[plateboater]

Is that a dormant color from CC or just straight up Granny Smith Green? Did you add any additional FM special ingredients to the color.......example glitter?

 

[Fatman]

Thanks Pepop

Plate - Yep that's one of the Dormant colors but for some reason comes out really well with a straight dip in the powder then the clear coat, nothing added. Once all the dormant colors are used up I probably won't buy any more if a regular mix color is available, those double dips take more time to do. The badger hair flairs a bit in the water on my flies but not sure what it's going to do with the jigs, I left about a 1/4th of the underur in to help bulk the collar, if you grab a stack just right the barring stays together really nice, but you need some really sharp scissors to get it to cut straight at the tie in point it's actually a little more slippery than squirrel tail hair.
