Lance Kekel 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2004 I've not played with the full dress flies yet either so I'm going to leave those out too For me it's the spun deer hair bassbugs. Once I got a brassie hair packer that portion of it has improved but the trimming into popper type shapes and detailing with multiple colors of deer hair in an effort to do much beyond a simple band of color added just gives me fits! What I wouldn't give for an afternoon with mr Helms over in Toledo! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
