*Update*

Took the 1/8 jigs for a swim and a dinky kokanee took the orange w/ dots mooching vertically. They flutter wonderfully.

On the other hand the dressed hooks are a total bust (jig wise). It kills the action. Running it with a dodger helped but... I'm not feeling dressed hooks for this type of jig.
