Any jig or lure makers out there?

Petty4life and myself are jig makers. I am still a newbie but learning quick.

I (Santa) just picked up my first melting pot and two jig molds for a Xmass present. I have the paints and tying material already.

I don’t pour my own lead but I do tie my own jigs and flies. I don’t have picture handy that includes most of the jigs that I tie but here’s a pic that includes of some of the stuff I use while ice fishing.

It only includes 3 of the jigs that I tie. I would say that the tub jigs in the picture and the jigs that I tie seem to be equally productive but I think it is more fun to catch fish on stuff that I made. The quality of the pic isn’t the best but if you look closely you can see that I like to use thin rubber legs and/or pearl flashabou on most of my ice jigs.

The small ice flies that you made are cool looking. I plan to get busy on some similiar ones during the holidays.
