I've got the proper equipment but lack experience.

Super easy.

Or

Basics, basically. Once upon a time, we didn't have skirt collars.

Everybody lacks experience in the beginning.

I actually know the guy in the first video.

Maybe not exactly how I do it, but it gives the idea. Adding silicone in makes it a little harder.

If I can tie bucktail, this should be slightly easier. Gonna practice on some old jig heads until I get it right.

Once you determine how much skirt material you want, lay it out on a table.  Smear a bit of Shoe Goo on a strand of copper wire and lay the wire on the rubber/silicone and let it dry (you can do a bunch of these at a time).   Once the Shoe Goo has set up you basically have rubber/silicone hackle with a wire core.  

Wrap it around the jighead collar, twist it with pliers until it's tight, cut the wire and fold over the twisted tag.   Done.  ?

I orders a few a the nujig naked models to tie up this weekend. I'm looking forward to power fishing this spring.

I put some new tires on the old Booyah A Jig tonight.
