Hackle Buggies Or Buggy Hackles ?

[papaperch]

While tying my swap #7 jigs I noticed the bluegill larder was lacking a little. Anyway hackle was lying on bench along with some small jig heads. While searching for another material ( a common problem in my messy mancave ) I came across some cactus midge chenille.

Took the real short fedders from the bottom of neck patch and used as tails. Used the midge chenille as body and the hackle fedders as tails. Except for the black and pink one no solid black hackle. Even tied a neck hackle on one due to left over piece. This was result of my flinging some gill getters together. # 12 crane swivel for size comparison.

Which one should I tie a bunch of in your opinion ?

Nice - I'd go with either the green head/tail at 12:00 or the brown head (ginger tail?) one around 9:00. The hackle neck one looks good too.... one of those 3!

I like the one at 9 o'clock too... They'll all work, but that's the one I'd tie on first!

i like also the one at 12 a clock and 9 a clock thats something I would carry in my arsenal!!!!!!!!!!

They all look good and I too like the 12 and 9 o'clock jigs. The red/white/white is a killer jig also.

They're all good, but 12 and 9 are it for me. A blue and white would be a good addition.
