Easy Sculpin Pattern

Recommended Posts

Hi. I'm looking for an easy sculpin pattern that doesn't use deer hair for the head. I checked our site, but couldn't find what I wanted.

Thanks,

Bruce

Featherhead (my take on the Marion Sculpin)

Knucklehead (same fly as the Featherhead, turned into a lead-head jig)

Pig sticker (end-to-end flexibility achieved by tying on a snelled hook)

Just use the wound hackle (cheap strung hackle, or hen hackle,) you can even clip the top and bottom to get a flatter wider head shape.
