Can anyone reccomend a good how-to book for tying jigs? I've tied plenty of flies, so I could probably figure it out, but I'm very green when it comes to jig fishing, so a good book is always helpful. Thanks!
P.S. Before you suggest it, I've already sent Mark at First Bite a PM. :D
Thanks!

I second the first bite video and the one by jeff hobson, but also the book about jig fishing called jig fishing for salmon and steelhead by Dave Vedder. It shows you how to tie a few jigs and also shows you how to properly fish them and what colors work for conditions and such, there are a lot of good sources out there! Good luck!
