Wow! No wonder you were looking for more of that chenille. That is one more beautiful fish. Great way to end the last day of the year. Congratulations & HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

The best I found to get skirt material is at www.fishingskirts.com this where I get all my bass skirts at to build our awesome bass baits

Have a bunch of their skirts and need to use them more. Have to get the spreaders for the little rings.
I have hundreds and hundreds, maybe a thousand or more skirts and slabs. They have just been taking up space. Just tied my first jig as you showed and I want to give you a big THANK YOU. I had a few of the variegated chenille which I used. Checked some pricing for the chenille and Grandpa seems to be dramatically cheaper than Barlow except they don't have the variety. Need to give Grandpa a call tomorrow. Thanks again, Pop

You're quite welcome Pop, got any pics of them? I'll check out Grandpa too.
Made some up a while back and posted a SBS instruction - larger sizes though intended for bass - lost them during the summer so do need to tie a few more.

Thanks AtticaFish, that's exactly what I have been wanting to know how to do....I appreciate it! Going to print them off and take them to the vise now. Nice looking jigs!

Good read and I am sure sold on the varigated. I agree with the whole depth thing and how much of a difference that can make. Funny thing is when I first bought the first thing of varigated, I had no intention too, but was looking for solid purple and they where out of it in all 3 sizes. That varigated was the closest thing to what I was looking for and now I have 5 or 6 different patterns of it. Really makes a good looking jig! I will post some pics in the next week, once I get a chance to tie some more. But first I have to pour some heads.
