In this tutorial, you'll see how to build a skirt with two complete tabs and then a half tab of orange and brown. Once you've made your skirt, insert the hook into the collar, push it over, and even out the skirt all the way around. Finally, trim a little bit of it off to make it even. You can always vary the amount of green pumpkin and add some brown or darker colors to darken up your selection. If you want to spice it up, add a few accent colors like red, orange, purple, or blue. The possibilities are endless when making your own jig skirts, and there's nothing like the feeling of catching a good fish on your own creation. To build your own jig skirt, you only need a selection of skirt tabs, a skirt tool, and a little creativity. By matching the color of your jig to the hatch in your favorite lake, you can increase your chances of catching more fish and having a great time on the water. So, get creative, experiment with different color combinations, and build custom jig skirts. ► SUBSCRIBE for more AWESOME FISHING TIPS: https://wired2.fish/YTSub FOLLOW US HERE: ► https://www.wired2fish.com ►   / wired2fish_official   ►   / wired2fish   ►   / wired2fish
