With JungleJim's jig catching so many fish last weekend I had to get some.Since pink is my favorite color for crappie I started there.1/16 oz. with pink marabou tied, then a feather on each top side of the mallard flank.I did'nt want to ruin the sides with flash,so I let it off of this one.Finished off with barbor pole pink chennile.Even used Danville 240 pink thread on this one.Looks great wet,Does'nt it ??

It is different and fun to tie with. I traded for some snow geese feathers and acts a lot like the mallard feathers does while tying with it.

Love them Flash Ducks. I have a bunch of them tied up. Now if I can get the rest of my duck feather dyed I will be in excellent shape. Seems here that the 1/32 with a size 6 hook does the trick. Natural and blue, Natural and red, Pink and chartreuse,
Those seem to work the best here.

Jungle Jim didn't know what monsters he created when he introduced the Flash Ducks. That's about the only thing I fish any more.
