Alex C. 0 Report post Posted December 21, 2005 This is a little lighter to throw than the bunny fly. The one in the pic is about 6" long. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StY|EsoX 0 Report post Posted December 21, 2005 This is my favorite combination of color for pike. Another good fly. :thumbup: Bouface is lighter than buuny bug but on ather side marabou is not so durable on pike teeth as rabbit strips. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most folks around here don't have to worry about how durable a fly is....we don't catch any fish anyways! :j_k: Great looking fly, I'd like to try it in a river I know of with a healthy pike population.

Dble Haul 0 Report post Posted December 21, 2005 This is indeed another great pike fly. In regards to marabou, I prefer it for collaring pike flies instead of crosscut rabbit because it's easier to blend or layer colors. Rabbit is tougher, but marabou leaves more coloring options.
