Guest Report post Posted February 24, 2023 I just took couple fresh dubbing brushes and some homemade shanks and did a EconoGameChanger. 😛 If this is Kosher the next fly is some kinda articulated streamer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First hippie stomper I ever tied on, I had got from @stabgnid in a swap, lost it to a nice bass on the first cast - LoL 15 hours ago, ScienceGuy141 said: Fly: Nancy P Nice fly - looks like a lot of work - what is the length?

As far as articulated streamers go the Nancy P is actually pretty straightforward. The deer hair heads were frustrating for me initially, but I think I could whip these up relatively quickly. I've also done ice dubbed bodies with a dubbing loop, but the dubbing loop does add some time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
