Tied these for moving water and moderate retrieves. Used a variety of materials. Several can be obtained from a fabric or craft store.

Materials:
  • Two 1/4-oz. Northland Gum-Ball Jigs with 1/0 red hooks
  • Darice Craft Fur - silver
  • Bernat Boa Eyelash Yarn - blue grey
  • Zucker Feather Products Schlappen Feathers (3) - black
  • FlyMasters (Wapsi) Schlappen Feather - white
  • Coats Metallic Thread (40-wt.) - silver
  • Danville Flymaster Plus Thread 140 denier - fl. blue
  • Danville Flymaster Plus Thread 140 denier - white
  • Rosey's Powder Coating - silver sand metallic
The silver metallic thread forms an abdomen on each of the jigs. It is hidden behind fur and feathers.

I really like Rosey's powders. Follow their recommendations for curing the powder and your jig heads will look pretty good. :cool:
