Harold Ray 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2017 Peacock and Ostrich Herl Scud New technique wrapping the combined ostrich herl and peacock around the abdomen and using an electric eraser to remove the cilia from the top and sides of the fly. Experimenting with longer legs. Kimo These are spectacular, Kimo, works of art, but your's always are. Any particular brand of electric eraser? I didn't even know they made electric erasers! Thanks!

Kimo 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2017 Here is a size 20 scud I tied. I tried using an eraser on the back (non-electric), and it turned out fairly well.C7C79718-228B-49E4-97A5-A51816424603.jpeg I tried tying a Kimo style parachute emerger, but I would rather not show that fly! Very Cool! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
