Cloudy skies seems to be the forecast and hoping it clears asap.

Picture isn't as fancy as yalls and pretty much pathetic but its my favorite colors so had to share. Same jig two pictures, one with flash and one without. The crappier of the two with the black lines is with flash and can see the glitter better. First time using two different rabbit colors and happy with the result.

Starlight black base coat with green/yellow chart tapped with gold mica. Can't quite see the glitter in the pic and silver prob would've complimented better so will have to try that next time.

That is expert work!!!!!!!!!! I love how you added the little bit of chartreuse at the back of the jig head that leads to the chenille, the color just flows as there isn't a transition, extremely nice!!!!!!!!!!

Nice ties. I like that rabbit. Get the grease ready and the hush puppies I know there is going to be a fish fry.

Thanks everybody, fried up some shrimp tonight, sure would be fantastic to have some fish to do although it's hard to beat blackened! 0% chance of rain for next week now too! Hope that everybody else's forecast is looking similar.

I like those two colors together too.
The jig looks really great.
If you're stripping this rabbit hairs off, you must have some good patches. I've only had some strips and was to stupid to know how to wrap em on the hide. Thus I've only tied small jigs with the ones I had bc the hair was so short.
You're great with colors. Betcha it'll be a catcher.
