Hair Jig Tying! Never Gets Old!

[bigjim5589]

With the extreme hot weather we've been having here in SC, and other areas, I haven't been inclined to stay outdoors for very long these days, so spent some time tying hair jigs and marabou jigs! Of course, it's something that I do enjoy doing!   

Here's a few. The first are 1/8 oz, on Pill Heads with fiber weed guards. They're tied with natural black bear hair. These all have a 1/0 VMC Barbarian hook. This is 12 of 16 that I tied. They're all 2 3/4" to 3" long.

The second is a black marabou jig, tied on a 1/4 oz round head jig with VMC 2/0 Barbarian hooks.  I tied a couple of dozen of these as well.

Looks great. I wish I had the room to play with tackle building. I know it can take over your life though LOL we used to pour plastics when we were out west and it seemed like I always had a new idea to make

Looks good Jim.

Jim, good looking as always. I haven't tied any hair in while, maybe this winter, I want to try some wormhead jigs with hair.

Thanks for the comments everyone! 

Mike, I don't ever seem to have enough room either. I got another mold the other day, that makes a total of 337 and I'll likely add more. Heck, I would like to get into pouring plastic baits, but what I'm doing now is keeping me busy, so not sure I would have the time for that much less the room anyway.   

Since I posted this, I've tied a few dozen more of the same. 

Rodney, if I waited until winter, I would be bored to death. As I said, it's been real hot here, so any pouring I'm doing has been in the early morning, then I usually wait until the Sun has gone on the other side of the house to get out there & paint them. So, been tying some during the day and in the evening.

Once the weather starts to cool down, I'll get out & do some fishing too.

Great work as always JIm   

I've been wanting to throw hair jigs for some time, and want to even tie some up, but as always, just never get around to it.
