First do you guys that use rabbit catch very many crappie? I bought some Cross-Cut Zonkers but not quite sure if I like them yet. I guess I should try them in the lake first to make a decision! I tied in some hackle also. Even put a spinner on one.

Nice work Len. Nothing compairs to the natural action of rabbit fur under water , except a live leech in my opinion .

Awesome jigs. Looks like you are ready to go catch some crappie with those. O yeah crappie will bite the rabbit tyes. Nice tying Len and the paint work is very nice. :)

Nice ties. Bunny has killer movement and I've caught close to a dozen species with bunny jigs. It's passed marabou on my list of favorite materials, still behind the ducks but action is incomparable.

I use rabbit more than anything else now. With the zonkers, I get the magnum zonkers with the leather being 1/4 in wide. A piece about 3/16 of an inch long makes a great tail and your chenille will cover up any leather.
