Over my Christmas break I have had some time to make up some some jigs. These are the color combination I have made any suggestions for other colors combination?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Younggun what did you use for the sparkle bodies?

UV Polar Chenille or regular polar chenille is a great material for those sparkle bodies, when tying it in make sure to pull back the fibres every turn.  That is the material that younggun appears to have used btw

Another product put out by the same company, Hareline Dubbin, which you can put on using  dubbing loops is Ice Dub in various colors.

Banny, I like the idea of the tail on the jig and I have added a tail in some of the patterns that I tied today.

P.S. Nice job on the jigs

UV polar chinelle

Your forgetting pink and white, other than that you have good colour combo's there.

Note: Add some flash in the tail. 4 or 6 strands of crystal flash

time to experiment with materials now.  ::)

  The big thing now added instead of regular crystal flash is the new UV crystal flash. The stuff is amazing and is starting to come out in more colours all the time.
