Steelhead Jigs

[tibbs]

Well after looking at Kemper's Tutorial on making rabbit fur jigs i thought i would take a whirl at making my own.

 

Any tips or new colours i should try would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

Here's the rabbit fur jigs:

Tibbs,

 

I pressume the lure resembles A fly.

 

I thought steehead will only consume them during spring, roe or minnow are mostly consumed during winter.

 

Please explain its application or reason on steelhead taking your lures during winter months. Are there underwater flies during winter months?

 

Thanks.

Hi there bassfighter. I believe that there are still some insects in the water during the winter like nymphs and stoneflies.
