Painted all of the jigs below with new paint. Used Rosey's "safety blue" color to paint three of the jigs, then tied on black and white barred craft fur as body and tail. The remaining jigs are painted with a combination of Rosey's safety blue, Harbor Freight's yellow, and Orbit clear gloss powder paints. My mixing ratio is 1:1:1. This combination makes a nice-looking "baby bass" green color. The jigs have white and sage-colored craft fur tied in as body and tail. Black krystal flash forms the lateral lines on each of these.

Jig hooks are #4 bronze Aberdeen.

Nice ties Pup!!!!!!!!! Like the paint. I've looked for the craft fur you talk about getting like on a bolt of cloth and they don't have it here.

I'm a big fan of that style and they just keep getting better!!!! The blue with the black barred craft fur is just amazing, perfect amount of material but the contrat is just flat out nice!!! Well done as always Pup, well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BTW, where did you find the black barred craft fur or did you make it??

SJ,

I bought it at Hancock Fabrics. They offered it online for a while. I made a post about it here. Read the thread through to the bottom of page 1 for more detailed information.
