Mikeq 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2006 Marabou Muddler!! I tryed tying some of these and when i spun the deer hair it went back a little to far, will it still work? I have a light brown deer hair ( only the tip is 'natural' ) and black marabou. I used marabou for the wing and underwing and peacock herl for the extra ummf. Fishing in the susky below the fibra damn. (fiber dam) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inconnu 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2006 I'm not sure what you mean by a little too far back, but when I was learning to tie muddlers, the ugly ones were just as effective as the "better" ones I tied later on. I usually do a collar made of the tips of the first bundle of hair, trim the bottom and continue on with the rest of the head. Good fishin' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Hard 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2006 I had an old muddler that you couldnt see the body, tail or wing, because of the collar worked great. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
