was wondering were you guys get your ultra chenille from for tying jigs in 1/64 and 1/80? I also have a few die hard kayak fishing friends including myself. when the live bait get scarce we switch over to jigs. i have had a couple of them ask me to tie them some salt water jigs. and i have no clue on were to start. the flounder and red drum have been hot all year long. and with the trout not to far behind. even the triple tail have had a huge increase this year. so were do need to go and get supplies and info on how to tie some saltwater jigs. sorry for the long ramble.

Crazy Angler is a good place and another that I recently found is Grandpa Bobs, they have all kinds of chenille. I tie bass jigs but I've been experimenting using smaller sizes and different styles that mimic trout and panfish patterns and it is working so I had to search a little but the members were really helpful. I also know of a place called OTE tackle that sells a lot of fly and jig tying stuff but they have some UV products that were really successful for me also.

Crazy Angler, Grandpa Bob's, and Feather Craft or where I would start. Do you know what you are trying to imitate bait-wise or what some popular color combos are? Might be good to hit up the local tackle shop or fly shop and get some ideas for what locals are using.

I haven't had to bye any since I bought a hugh lot of chenille off a guy over at the Fly Tying Forum. For Saltwater jigs look in the saltwater section or tying section and look at posts by Salty and blt they tie some really nice salt water jigs.

As far as where to buy x2 with Zac.
