Mo - nice tie!!! I don't have any of the raw wool but I've used the wool roving and I got some good stuff at the Farmers Market

I'm also thinking of trying some with the arctic fox and polar bear I dyed up.

Attica, Good going on "almost" getting that big walleye on your frog bait! Here again, an oval shape & kicking legs was the trigger! I've been reading a lot lately of the annual Fall frog migration (something we hard core jig fishermen should explore much further!) and how normally deep lying walleyes can be found in mere inches of water to feast on frogs! A good write-up on this is this one-

Fatman thanks for the info on that wool. Will be ordering some up. Here on my lakes white won't work well. Right now with lake rising and turnover I have three inch surface clarity. They do like the fur and satin jigs though

She would not fit in the green measuring device. Bites were 50/50 jig vs minnow last night.
