1/12 walleye heads with a 1/0 Gami 114 jig hook and 1/12 custom minnows on a #2 sickle hook. I used glass crystals for the eyes. They reflect light very well, could see red on my finger nails as I was tying these. These are about 3 inches long. Two in the first picture have rattles in them. Can you tell which one's they are?

Fatman, don't know how you could tell but you were right. hookup, got those hooks of ebay real cheap. Less than a dime per hook and bought 1000 so will be playing with these for awhile unless I buy more.

Seller had auctions with these and other hooks but had a buy it now on these for $74.99 and I snatched one up. Last time I looked there was still some left. Some auctions have gone for more and others less than what I paid. Should check and see if he can get 1's or 2's, better suited for crappie in those sizes.

Collars on 1,2 and 5 are very uniform, but 3 and 4 have a bigger edge in the back which is where the rattle would be tied in. I remember your tutorial on tying the pb rattlers and the collars on them are bigger.

Impressive Craft Hair Jigs. I just picked up some nice colors from JoAnn's Fabric store. Looking forward to getting time to try a few patterns. Thanks for sharing.
