Tying Marabou Jigs

[Bad cast]

Thanks for the tips guys, the 6/0 thread held the marabou tighter to the hook and preasure from thumbnail kept the thread from sliding down the hook. Jigs are much better now at least to my eye.Here's a pic.

thanks again

I have experienced some jig bodies that taper towards the hook area. To solve this problem of the maribou sliding off the body --- take a 3 corner file and cut a nick in the body perpindicular to the hook. The thread will catch in the cut and prevent the maribou from sliding off.
