Nice fiber shrimp FG. And pinfish?

Thanks. I ended up getting the supreme hair to tie them. And I think that's more of a bluegill then a pinfish, but close enough to either, right? I'm thinking that thing is just gonna foul like crazy.

...But a little trick I use for nice clean wraps are to remove the barbs on one side of the hackle.....

 

I've always done that just with the first 1/8" or so to keep the hackle away from the abdomen, but I now see what you're saying (delayed reaction). Neat idea.

Nice boobie fly nick.

Do you use fabric from nylons to contain the eyes?

Certainly do :)
