DUBBN 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2013 I found a really easy but nice looking worm pattern. Materials are pretty simple. Lead Pink thread Red thread Hook What types of worms do you like to tie? FlyTieDad There are times when your style of worm will work for me, and a SJ Worm wont. You are on the right track in my opinion. http://www.charliesflyboxinc.com/flybox/details.cfm?parentID=107 Use the condom flies with in a few months. I had trouble with the material drying out and cracking. Just my experience. Others might not have that issue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will K 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2013 you might try a latex condom worm they use little thread and look quite real Right on - Vladi style worms are awesome. You can do this with a latex glove as well... Break out the sharpies and some fleximent or a thin UV resin to prevent the latex from breakding down over time and you have a totally killer worm pattern that's tied in a flash.
