Saltybum 0 Report post Posted November 29, 2016 Thanks Poopdeck. My right hand fingers wouldn't allow me to dub or tie the hair so I laid out some about an inch long and did some welding with CCG, then trimmed it and welded the carapace onto the hook. A bit messy but it worked. The blue hackles and legs and eyes were pretty easy to tie on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SBPatt 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2016 Giancarlo's Hair & Partridge Not really sure what part of the developmental process it's supposed to represent, but it's sure is different. A very cool vid (he has a ton of them) Even in Italian, the tying sequence is easy to follow. hook - Dai Riki 125 #12 thread - Danville 6/0 olive body - mylar medium opal underwing - partridge wing - deer hair head - dubbing olive Regards, Scott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
