I just got a bunch of EP fiber to tie some nice EP flies for stripers. I made some nice white shad profiles, but what I'm really excited about are the jigs. I tied some of this stuff around some old jigs and WOW! I can mix and match some very nice colors, make my jigs sparse or extremely thick for murkier water, and make them any length I want! I'm really digging it. Plus, I think it looks superior in a glass of water. I can't wait to try them out...
My favorite so far are the camo colored. They seriously look ready for combat!

That black and red one should be good for priest. You might try just a solid red one, back when I lived in Nashville that was the best color I had on Priest in the summer with a zoom skinny chunk in black.

Look good!
I use a lot of hair jigs for walleyes here on the Mississipps R. and it's amazing how those large eyez can track down a sparsely tied 1/8 oz. hair jig in that big current.
