Mmmm Bluegill
« on: 05/26/14 12:02 UTC »
I found a few Strike King jigs on clearance for $0.46 a jig. Got them home and cut the ugly skirts off, then decided to keep the material. Seperated the skirt strands by color, grabbed a jig and tossed it in the vise. A bit of patients and hand tying, this is what came out.

Looks good, Drew. I really envy you guys that have that eye for color. Have you fished it yet?
