Due to arthritis in my fingers and hands I am no longer able to tie jigs and will be selling all of my equipment. I have a lot of items including a Peak Rotary Vice, several bobbins, scissors, powder paints, thread, feathers, fur, chenille, etc, etc. If any of you are interested in any or all...

I bought some Senyo's Shaggy Dub last week. I really like the looks and the feel. Looks incredible in the water! Anyone with idea's on appling this stuff? Love it, but it's quite unrully..have tried the dubbing loop, but with little luck.. :huh:

The spawn has started here in Maine. My buddy and I tried a pond known for it's big crappie, and we were not disappointed. We fished from 7AM to 10:30AM and caught a total of 106 fish (1 5# bass, 2 14" white perch, 103 crappie)40 of the crappie were 15" and up to 16 1/2". Most fish were caught...

A material that I have never used has peaked my interest. I see a lot of fly tyers using this material, but I hardly see anyone using it as a jig material. Just wondering if any of the guys on here use it on jigs, and if so, what and where do you use it, pictures would be great? Found this...

Seeing I can't ice fish yet (ponds only partially frozen :( ), I have been recycling old jigs that I had, that never seemed to produce. First picture is what the jigs looked like..second is what I came up with by adding a bit of bunny,some flash, nailpolish and a thread body.. Jig size I would...

I picked a few of these up on ebay 3 or 4 years ago, but never had much luck with them....even tipped with bait. Thought I would put some clothes on them, and give them another try this ice season. They are abot 1/16 oz, and oval shaped when looking head on. Anyone have an idea on what to...

Anybody here make and sell 1/64 ant jigs? I'm looking for the segmented body style...

I'll start it off... Here are a few 1/100 oz jigs I have tied for the up coming season. Most are my favorite color combo's, with a few oddballs thrown in ;)

Tried a small sample of ostrich herl on a 1/64 jig head in one of my favorite color combos. I like the look, but was wondering what you other jig guys think of this material for jigs. I have heard that it is not very durable for bodies, but there seems to be a lot of fly tiers that use it...

I have 29 very lightly used crankbaits I would like to sell. I have given up trollling for crappie, and just jig fish now... They consist of 17 Bandit 300's ---5 Bandit 200's --- 6 Rat-L-Traps (1 3/4") ---1 Cordell (2") Asking $80 for the lot and I'll pay the shipping... If interested, PM...

Anyone know of a good paint for styrofoam floats? Looking for something that will last awhile.. Fluorescent colors are what I am looking for..

Is there any member here that makes and sells a 1/32 and a 1/64 chub head? I'm looking for about 50 of each. PM me if available..

I thought I would post the results of the double bunny that I tied awhile back. After over 120 fish (crappie, bass, perch, sunfish and pickerel) this little jewel has been retired. Time to tie a few more with different color combos. I was impressed with the durability of the bunny strips...

Seems like the spawn is in full swing...they had a taste for my rootbeer jigs, that seem to be working well..

I have never had much luck with blue, but I thought I'd give these a try next week. Anybody have any thoughts on the color blue for crappie? My guess is they may work better in clearer water..

Too windy to fish today, so my buddy and I visited a few fishing and discount stores. I found this thread in a discount store....5 @ 100 meter spools for $1.99. Of course when I saw them I thought "jigs" ! I think they will make great thread heads for hair jigs. Thread is a metalic and very...

Here in Maine black crappie are considered an invasive species, and no law or limit on them. In the past few years more and more people are fishing for them then ever before, but not to any great extent..YET! I have fished for them for about 9 years now, and they have become my main target...

Yesterday we did well with the crappie and perch using my orange/chartreuse jigs. This AM they developed "lockjaw", and would not have anything to do with orange/chartreuse :-/ I changed to these two ties and they awoke! Gotta love catching fish on your own ties!!

Out this AM for a little crappie fishing. Between the two of us we caught 61 with a few assorted yellow and white perch mixed in, all released to fight another day... except a few for the nesting eagles. They had to feed the kids ya know! :D
