It 'settles' right into the hackle. Go for that 14! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m looking forward to fishing them to see if I will keep them in the arsenal. Next one I’ll pull the foam up and let it snap back down after cutting. Thanks. I have a 14 already wrapped in moose mane and coated with sally Hanson laying in wait. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
