Mega/Super/Ultra Electric Yarn Chickens

[Pup]

I didn't know what else to call these.



Tied with eyelash yarn and craft fur, I'll fish these for just about anything. Bass will be included.

I'm hoping for pleasant surprises. Used 1/8-oz. ball head jigs with #2 hooks.

The flo. green yarn is a new-to-me yarn called LashMax. Its color is called "kryptonite". I think that I like it and hope that a fish will too.

Those are nice... I bet they have great action!

About as "electric" as it gets. I like em.
White n red HF paint mix?
Does yarn have good action? Seems like it's absorbency would weight it from free movement but I imagine it's as tough as all get out.

Thanks JM and LP.

LP,

Yes to both of your questions.

I enjoy mixing my own paints. If I can mix something close enough to what I'd like to have, then that's good enough for me.

Yarn moves freely. But, just like hair, it can be tied on too densely or too bulky which can restrict movement somewhat. I have a tendency to use thinner materials as I move away from the jig's head toward the bend of the hook. I use thicker yarn at the head for a good profile :bigfish: and thinner yarn by itself or combined with craft fur as a tail. This portion of the jig should produce the most action upon retrieve.
