All those 5/8, 1/2, and 1 oz jigs I tied for the Hitching Post finally sold yesterday. 30 big jigs in all. Happy the owner of the Hitching Post came back from vacation. Now to finish my current irder I'm on-----> 120 olive woolly buggers. I've got 6 dozen done, 4 dozen to go. I think I'm going to be sick of tying buggers by the time I'm done.

Thanks guys! I can use all the encouragement I can get. It took a week or better to close the deal on the woolly buggers. I am keeping my fingers crossed!

That's great to hear. Sounds like youre staying busy
Let me ask you something, if you don't mind. Are your sales paying for your materials and time? I know youre a student and time has to be limited
I'm trying to figure if this is something I should try. I've always just given away jigs by the handfuls to those interested. So much to the point that I have very little materials left. I'm about to make an order and I'm trying to figure if this is something I would have the time or money to pursue since there is such an interest for em.

Lost pole---so far I have been lucky at my sales paying for my material and time. I'm not charging a gawd awful price for them just adding up what I use and rounding up a figure for the amount. Like the buggers, materials cost---> hooks .12, part of a marabou piece maybe .02 -.05, tungsten bead .16 material cost $.30 to $.33. My price $1.10 a bugger. Does this help you some?
