Thank you sir! Its weighted. If you look really close by the right mono eye you can barely make out the small dumbell weight. Whitner posted the pattern in the "need a crab fly" post thats been kicking around.

Mullet fly is perfecto in my opinion. I can see a big wake right behind its small wake...

Thanks! Gonna tie up a couple more, just in case blink.png

Ben I think you have the whole spinning material thing down to an art! That mullet and wool baitfish are shweet.

 

What's up with the purple deer hair, I really like the way it seems to glow.

Haha thanks. Im gonna tie up a few more of the mullet fly. I have a feeling I might want a couple of those. If I need fast sinking, that wool headed one should work out pretty good.

 

The purple? It was special stuff you inhaled that made it have that glow. Maybe the same stuff PJ took that one night he did that one thing while in Daytona. Remember that?? I think its the way the camera picks it up under the ottlite. Although its some bright ass stuff I picked up at Orifice (orvis) a couple years ago.

Awesome deer hair work, Ben. This things look absolutely killer

Thanks Dude. Its not my technique lol. Most likely the quality of the hair. Its all from a primo hair strip, Does the work by itself almost!
