onceahoosier 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 Beautiful fly, and an amazing tail. Lots of saddle hackle and some great looking marabou. Pat, do you tie the rubber legs into the body as you spin the hair or do you thread them through the finished fly? Thanks for posting. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tom the rubber legs are pulled through the body after trimming usually with a bobbin threader or darning needle once again great tie Pat I swear you must have half the deer kill from michigan tanned in your tying stash Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
