The middle jig is a original Pinkie Jig and the others are my version of a New Age Pinkie Jig using zonker strips...

Nice-looking ties Len. :cool:

I know that rabbit has great movement in the water, even with steady retrieves. Here's a look at a Pinkie Jig in action.

Looking very nice...... clean ties! :cool:

Rabbit and Kip are my top 2 preferred tail materials. Each have their own specific action. Normally i like kip in colder months and rabbit in warmer water temps but it is hard to clip off the kip jigs when they keep working right on through from last ice in to spawn.

Nice job Len. We use the term New Age but in actuality we are reviving and updating old patterns. A better term in my opinion would be Neo old school. Neo meaning new old school the up date of the old patterns. Got to remember of all the old patterns that have passed in favor of a new color or technique. Toad and I have had the discussion on all the old patterns that when updated still work like a charm. Give it some thought.
