Purple Zonker/Bunny Firetail Jig

Rabbit strips and jig heads are a perfect match. The jig head adds a lot of action to the super soft rabbit fur, and the added weight when the fur gets wet, gives longer cast, even with relatively light jigheads.

Soaked rabbit fur can be a pain to cast on the fly rod, but on a spinning rod or a baitcasting outfit, it is a bonus.

I’ve called this jig Zonker Jig, but even though it incorporates a zonker strip, it is actually more of a Bunny style jig – since the strip is wrapped around the hook shank.

You can tie this jig in every imaginable color combination. These pink and purple colors can be the number one combo, when fishing for perch in my home waters, though. And it is a great combination for trout as well.

Thanks for watching :0)
