hey fellas just want to throw an idea out there that I found to be very succsessfull.  I started tying my jigs with maribou tails and rabit fur bodies.  they give off a lot of movement and I think that when fishing for pressured fish they really give you and advantage over the guys just throwing the boo.

Can you post some pic's.  I've just started tying jigs made a few they don't look to bad I will try them out.  The only problem I've been having is getting super glue all over my fingers.  Help how do you get this stuff off Grin

I just wrap the bunny fir like yarn, and then just use my tread to tie off the rig at the front.

Boys, Here is a link to a tutorial I put together on tying Jigs with bunny fur.  The only glue I use is either head cement or a drop of superglue behing the head of the jig.  It just adds a little strength to the whip finish.
