I make flies, jigs, and such.  It is one of my hobbies, but have way too many to ever fish.  I can make flies for you, at cost and shipping, jigs, and such.  I just need a description of what you want, pics help.  Here are a few rock fishing jigs I made this morning, and some Pyramid lake flies, and misc stuff.  The mounted fish is a steelhead I caught on the fly with the first fish caught on one of my son's flies, it was a olive leech pattern.

Nice work! How heavy are the RF jigs?
If you're not living on the edge - you're taking up too much space!

Those range from 1/2 to one ounce.  I made some 4 oz ones tonight.  I also plan on using them for drifting anchovies for butts, rather than a ball, ya never know, the butts might hit the jig.

Thanks, I have been tying for a while.  I had some really good people in the industry teach me some of their secrets.

David, sorry I did not see the post and let you down.  I will make you a couple free of charge, for my bad.  I also started tying farallon feathers and bucktail shrimp flies on 5/0 hooks w/ 25# test 12" leaders, I will get a pic posted soon, but had some at Albion that I gave away.  I would sell them for a buck a piece, or barter for homemade swimbaits or butter knife bars.  PM me because I do not check this thread much.

Rich thx for showing me your flies @ albion...my wannabe shrimp flys don't hold a candle to yours, but they catch fish!!!  :smt044

do u pour your jigs, I've got to get setup to "pour" freaking buying that stuff suks...and where do most of our rigs end up "on the Bottom" last yr I donated so much gear...started making my own lures, a few guys were commenting on them...sad to say I put sooo much effort to make them, even took them OTW with me and didn't use.... :smt009 maybe if I took more pride in my handy work I could be Like Aaron and say I caught a BIG FISH on my own creation!!! Aaron how much for your Hawain looking jig... :smt003 WTG on it... :smt002
It's all about Today!!! Because who knows what tomorrow will bring... so Better get OTW n GetSome

I will bring an assortment to MBK, shrimp flies, and jigs.  If anyone wants other flies for fresh water, or clouser minnows, let me know and I will bring them to the tourney.  I am going to be tight on space, or I would set up a yardsale like Mooch!

Ditto on my end Rich, I could also use some of the 3-4oz. set-ups with rootbeer, red/yellow, reflective white/green. I will not make it to MBK, but will get in touch soon to set up a fishing trip with you. Mike
