Check out walmart or target for glow in the dark spider web. Walmart is cheaper and you get more (~$2 for 13 feet vs $3 for 12 feet). Big bang for the buck!

I tried some on the Boolie style jig - haven't tried dubbing with it yet. Caught Bluegill with the green glow. Just picked up the white glow.

Len, you must have been reading my mind with the glow/ mallard combo. I need to pick some glow up. That red thread in the tail will add a few fish to the bag. Neat little trick, I've been doing it for years and I'm convinced that I catch more when I do it. I do it with other color threads as well and sometimes substitute that with Uni-floss.

Yes JungleJim1 your past posts on using duck feathers in tying jigs have been very helpful.Your Flash Duck Jigs are great.

Very cool tyes Len.

Found plain white - does not fluoresce - not sure if it will absorb ink. Saw one of the neighbors has orange and black web in their yard.... hmmm
