Greg thanks I think for the first one its OK but needing much improvement. As far as the round jig I can tell you Dick is lazy and don't want another job. If I can figure it out I'll tell you and everybody else and you and they can make them for what ever reason. Greg the dubbing I used I got at Janns Netcraft since I only live about 10 mile from there that's where 90% of my stuff come from. The dubbing is HARELINE DUBBIN, INC -Ice Dub Peacock Black. You take care Greg and I'll catch you later and I really enjoyed our talk the other night hope I didn't keep you up to late.

I have a few in green colors. These guys also get hammered by trouts. Always great to have them as part of the arsenal.

I love to use these tied in tandem. A swivel, then about a foot of fairly stiff floro, them about a 2 and half foot length of 4-6 lb floro, with a Ika tied, underneath an upright bobber, ever so slowly retrieved until the magic rhythm gets a strike. Smallies will hit close to shore on the rig too.
