I have never been able to get the results I have been looking for in a mackeral pattern....I tried some free hand before but was unhappy with the results and could not find a pattern template I was happy with so I tried a new way to freehand and I was quite pleased with this result! These are blue macks Raven.....no green in them. Maybe your eyes see something I don't? I have seen green tinkers before....but no green in the adult Jacks??

I'd stick with the gills...gives your already great looking plugs "WOW"...a lot of the stuff out there starts to look the same after a while...that little addition really gives you a different and appealing look...those jointeds are CRAZY

Larry those look great!
I was messing with jointed stuff this weekend trying to tighten the joints. I ended up countersinking the whole nose grommet on the back piece a little bit, so the whole nose grommet is countersunk maybe a little over 1/8-3/16. Once you do the tail wrap on the back piece all that sticks out of the nose loop is the very end of the loop. Where yours is cut in such a sharp 'V' you'd need to make the tail loop on the head piece sit horizontal then the countersunk nose loop on the back piece could be vertical ... |
