PWB 0 Report post Posted July 24, 2012 Tied up a batch of these last week and gave them a try this past weekend......wow! Killed the bass and bluegills in my favorite pond. Tied a few different colors but this one and the hot pink/black ones were the best. Give these a try! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C LeBo 0 Report post Posted July 24, 2012 Nice use of materials! Try melting a curly tail to the end of it to give a little more action. Where do you buy that... whatever it is behind the fly? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

timeflies 0 Report post Posted August 2, 2012 how did you attach the little rubber thingy to the hook? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Piker20 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2012 You just thread your hook point in the blunt end. same as a plastic worm for baitcasting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PWB 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2012 They are not threaded on the hook. Hard to explain but if you watch the you tube video you will see. It's not hard to do. The video is well done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
