1/12 walleye heads with a 1/0 Gami 114 jig hook and 1/12 custom minnows on a #2 sickle hook. I used glass crystals for the eyes. They reflect light very well, could see red on my finger nails as I was tying these. These are about 3 inches long. Two in the first picture have rattles in them. Can you tell which one's they are?

That is one of my favorite hooks to fish with - from 1/0 to 3/0

Fatman, don't know how you could tell but you were right. hookup, got those hooks of ebay real cheap. Less than a dime per hook and bought 1000 so will be playing with these for awhile unless I buy more.

Seller had auctions with these and other hooks but had a buy it now on these for $74.99 and I snatched one up. Last time I looked there was still some left. Some auctions have gone for more and others less than what I paid. Should check and see if he can get 1's or 2's, better suited for crappie in those sizes.

Collars on 1,2 and 5 are very uniform, but 3 and 4 have a bigger edge in the back which is where the rattle would be tied in. I remember your tutorial on tying the pb rattlers and the collars on them are bigger.

Impressive Craft Hair Jigs. I just picked up some nice colors from JoAnn's Fabric store. Looking forward to getting time to try a few patterns. Thanks for sharing.
