Some Bead Chain Ties

[AndyLane]

I have always liked the look of a clouser minnow or other ties using barbell eyes or bead chain eyes but I haven't really ever tied any. Tied these this morning. thought they might be good for the crappie and gills this spring. I have no Idea what kind of hooks these are but they are short shank #4's I think. I bought em last year to use fishing with live cicadas when they were here. Anyways these are pretty ugly ties but let me know what ya think.

Nice ties and some of them as far as the bodies go do present some ideas for different jigs!! These all going on the fly rod or spinning rod???

I don't think many fish will find those ties ugly.. The little guys in your second picture would be perfect for imitating the small young-of-the-year shad that all kinds of fish target after a hatch. Nice work for sure! I think you're on to something there, a wool/satin mini clouser. I think I have to tie a few of those now..

Nothing ugly about those ties. Double rig them above a larger jig and let the fish tell you what they want.
