Those are fantastic FM!!!! The satin will provide a lot of movement but I like 3D eyes better, the wiggle ees aren't bad but on those jigs 3D eyes would make them pop!!

k...now we are talking! FM have you figured out how to pull out the satin. I have been either doing a 4" piece and double over or a 2" piece and attached that way. Any suggestions. Very time consuming to set the jigs in the style pictured.

Awesome work Fatman!!

Thanks guys -

Plate - I've basically just pulled a piece out of the hank of wool and started stretching it - reading more of the thread on reds jigs I need to get it even skinnier.

FM....with you but how about the satin. How are you working the satin.

 

[Fatman]

I tie on strip on one side - spin the handle on my vise tie a strip on the other side, spin it back put a strip on the bottom, half hitch then take the jig out and flip it around and with a little larger strip split it over the hook and then tie in. Then I finish wrapping my collar.

Cool....that is not what I have been doing but will try the trick

Hope it helps!!
