That is awesome!!! I only saw those as flies, I never thought you could make it work with a jig, that is fantastic and I know I want to try that myself!! What size head?

Thanks SJ - These are 1/32 nd's on a #6 hook. Kinda of a pain in the butt tying a fly pattern on that size hook, when your used to #10 and smaller. Got some 1/32nd I poured on #10 gold hooks that I'm gonna tie em on for myself. Here's an article from a really old mag I have on tying fly patterns on Jig heads.

They would be munched by the trout on "my" river Fatman; what fish is your mate targeting?
