JasonV 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2015 I'm in. I have to order some zonker strips but that will give me time to finish up these poppers. I will do a Deer Hair Mouse with a zonker tail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2015 Since there's going to be more than one slumpbuster style fly in this I thought I'd take a different tack. I've finished up a set of raccoon/rabbit zonkered wooly buggers. Finnish Raccoon strip for the tail instead of marabou and palmered rabbit strip for the body. Look pretty good if I say so myself. They are mid-body weighted with 10 wraps of .025 to try to keep them level in the water and light enough to cast. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
