    Not happy with Barlow`s housebrand pp

    I have noticed a difference in some powders being very heavy and clumped together. They just don't dust off a tapped brush as easily. Never thought of the being made from different materials. Thanks for the tip. Curious about your paint job on these. Is the belly side a silver powder or is...

    Another Guide's Choice Hare's Ear

    Nice tie. Those little things are killer through the ice, just have to be careful how full you make the hackle collar. Too much collar and they take forever to sink. Did you make it out on the ice this year? Think my ice season is officially over with this warm spell.

    White Bass Jigs From A Throw Rug

    Those are nice looking jigs! Hard to beat the white/red combo when fish (especially white bass) school up on minnows. I finally did catch a walleye last fall with one of the spinner arm under spins i made. I would bet those will get you lots of attention. Sounds like a heck of a deal on the...

    More Hair Jigs for Bass

    When you are on your Imgur page, right click on the picture you want to use and click 'Copy Image Address'.  When you go to post here, use the 'Insert An Image' button and then past the image address in to the URL.  I've never used the specific Height/Width options.  Here they are just using the...

    Speed Shad Packaging

    I try to keep them in the clam pack but have put some in bags and then squeezed into plano boxes. Never really noticed too much distortion. If they have that big boot tail, hard to keep it from thumping. I have a much worse time with the big 5" Kalin's Lunker Grub tails. If those get folded...

    mold questions for redman

    Got the email.  All the pictures were combined into a single collage layout file like a proof page so i left it the full resolution that it came to me.  Here it is........

    mold questions for redman

    Send them to me. [email protected] I will see what I can do. May be tough to figure out where they go in the thread, but at least will take a look.

    3rd party hosting?

    Welcome to the forum! Do you have an example you can point me to so i can see exactly what you are talking about? If you have a link or just the name of the thread, that will work. I am thinking that those are pictures that at one time were posted from a photo sharing site like PhotoBucket...

    A bit of ice time...

    Just got out on Super Bowl Sunday for a few hours before the game.  Stayed close to home at the Attica reservoir and honestly didn't have high hopes for the day.  I was pleasantly surprised.  Had action the whole time i was there.  Caught 3 good sized bass that peeled drag and a bunch of little...

    A bit of ice time...

    Fast forward a month or so and after some more warm days with rain, the ice on the deeper water reservoirs is not doing so good.  The base ice is still there, but getting to it is the problem.  Did some searching around 2 weeks ago and only available ice i could find was on East Harbor off of...

    A bit of ice time...

    Glad you have found some time to get out UG!  As cold as it has been, i bet you have a pretty thick base layer of ice. Might just piggyback your thread with my season so far....... I have had a pretty good one to this point.  Outside of the temperature swinging a LOT up and down that caused a...

    LifeFly-Outdoors is back from vacation

    A lot of Chinese companies close down around this time of year for the Chinese New Year. We have to plan for the shut-down each year for Pukka brand custom assembled baseball caps that come from China for some local teams here.

    Quick tutorial on tying with craft hair

    I've had good results with really full hair jigs. The synthetic hair/fur really moves good in the water. I even add wool or cotton batting sometimes on the hook shank first to give it a bigger profile. Now if I tie kiptail or bucktail, I think it is a must to keep those sparse.

    Trilobal Antron chenille

    I have a couple small packs of different colors of the Trilobal Antron stuff and really like it.  That is one hell of a roll!  You saved your self some cash on that purchase.  Really like the chart/orange contrast.

    VARIETY

    Nice ties, good stuff all around. That glitter and pearl looking colors on the heads really do stand out. I think you have just about all species covered in your variety. The craft fur would nail the walleye around here and those plated heads with the silicone legs would be deadly on panfish.

    Lots of glitter

    Have been painting up a few bigger heads to tie up for walleye jigs. A friend on another forum wanted some and told him i would barter some away.  Sure is fun to paint these flat side heads.  Lots of room to work.  Whole lotta glitter involved along with pearl pigments and mica powder.  The 2...
