A Swim Jig For Schooling Shad Situations

Earlier this month, I purchased a "new-to-me" eyelash yarn from Jo Ann Fabrics.  It's called Lion Brand Fun Fur Exotic.  The color is "silver fox".  This material moves nicely in the water.  Its silver color is very shiny.

I've combined it with a multi-toned gray craft fur that I purchased from Jo Ann on the same day.  Visually, I like the pattern's appearance and its looks in water.

Pictured below are simple craft fur ties on the left as well as my shad-styled swim jigs.  The jigs are 1/8-ounce with #2 hooks.


Have had initial success with the swim jigs on largemouth bass in Eagle Creek Reservoir of Indianapolis.
