Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Sorry LedHed, I can't seem to get the infamous LedHed's Auto-jigs to match yours. Even Fab beats me with the tyes.

Will be de-barbing these soon. Just got a bag of premade jigs with painted eyes for $2.99.

Dick, that bug is long from being mastered. LedHed has several variation that dwarfed my mimics by far. I have so much to learn from his pics still.

OK Leo looks like you got that bug down.

Just a few pics would be useful, Leo. Nothing elaborate!

LOL Not a problem. I'll be glad to put the photos into a PDF file with instructions if that's what you like, and send them to you. Remember, this is my interpretation of LedHed's infamous tyes. I haven't got a freaking clue on how he starts his awesome ties using his own hand poured Matzuo sickle hooks, which is pure wickedness.

I'm like you Leo I'm interested in duplicating them.
But I'm wanting some good pics to try and do it using soft plastics.

Jig heads I got. Soft plastics, too. Rubbery legs are no problem, either. So you see where I'm going with this.....

I TRIED MAKING A FAMOUS JEN " NAY BE " ONCE and tried it several times to no avail so you are'nt alone buddy!!!!!!!!

Sorry David, I copied the tyes from LedHed photos that he posted with his grandkids and him, catching the coppernose at Lake Perris. There are a few photos of his assorted Auto-jigs. I just try to mimic them to the best that I see. After tying about 5, I found a trick to making them. I'll post the directions if LedHed allow me to share this specialized flies that I somewhat attempted to mimic..failed kind of miserably.

Is there a link to tying these?
