I know a ton of people tie jig flies upside down but I don’t find it make a difference to the fish lol. 

I'm lazy, so I leave off the wingcase when I tie on a jig hook.  However, I do like to add a split thread collar instead:

Very nice! Lazy ties are sometimes the most effective on fish lol.

But I do love a good challenging tie.
