You can make some really cool combinations using different colored zonkers and crosscuts on the same jig. I wanted to make a baby perch imitation for bass, so I tied the top jig. I liked the results so much, I tied the bottom one smaller for crappie.
Tie in your thread, then poke the hook point through the leather on the zonker strip. Tie down the strip, then attach your flash. Fold the strip back and palmer your crosscut strip, leaving some space near the head. Then pull the hair on the crosscut down and lay the zonker strip over the back. Tie down the zonker, advance the thread to just behind the head. Palmer the zonker strip for two or three turns and tie off.
