The ultra minnow tie would have a place in my box..... as would the blue! Paint on that blue head is very cool - have to try something like it.

Those look like fish getters to me. I like how you match up the width of the chenille to the back of the head.

The blues are my fav. I love the look of minnow heads bc you can get more creative painting with all the angles but round heads w/ big eyes can't be beat in the water. And you did the paint justice.
Great jigs all around, Squeaky jerry.

I like them all but since I love strawberry shortcake, I'll have to vote for that one. Great job on all of them.
