Here’s a picture of a baitfish imitator tied using flash materials in a spun dubbing loop. This technique builds a larger head than just tying the materials on in the typical way.
Here’s some microjigs like the one I caught the 14" crappie on last week…the tails are various colors of grizzly “chickabou”, and the bodies are SLF Prism Dubbing.
And here’s some “Wiggle Baitfish” that I tied up this weekend. (Or, at least its as close as I could come up with from the 2 pictures I saw on the web.) I tried the Chartreuse one last night around dusk, and caught a crappie and a largemouth bass on it. I switched to something else because I was missing a lot of hits, too. Great fly, though, it would be perfect in other places where the fish run a bit bigger. :icon_cheers:
Disclaimer…ok, last week I only saw pictures of the fly. Now I just found the tying instructions, and see my pattern is really nothing like Ulf’s. But…it caught fish, and was easy to cast, not too difficult to make. For those interested, here’s Ulf’s pattern:

Turns out my pattern is more similar to the CK Baitfish (or maybe a joining of BOTH of these patterns):

That tail was really vibrating during my casts, so I can only imagine what it was doing underwater! 
The tails are sort of a microsuede material, made by Kreel Tackle Company, which apparently sold out to Montana Fly Company, and may no longer be available. For those with skill, you could cut the tail shape out of chamois…which is a bit thicker, but should still have awesome movement in the water.
Also, I think it might help to use wraps of non-lead wire to help sink this pattern a bit deeper in the water.
