Guest Report post Posted August 11, 2020 Here’s one for you game changers that I ran across. I never tried them; might need to try it. Prolly have to make my spine shanks outa something. Looks like tail with 3,4 more spines, then the hook, eyes and antennas. Any advise welcomed; work in progress. Not a lotta gals out there tying. Wonder if any around here... https://flylordsmag.com/brita-fordice/?amp Did anyone pan down to this nut cake? https://flylordsmag.com/video-fly-dudes-tying/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted August 12, 2020 First attempt....won’t be mass producing these but doable....craft fur dub for the segments, 4 mm glass rattle in the head. Might be better if hook was other way ie the tail... Shrimp pop backwards. Used 131# Malin hard wire trolling leader for the shanks. They make a 184# wire if I get to the Coast. Kids hair fiber for da tail and glass bead eyeballs. I still have old standbys....Seatrout hammer’em Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted August 22, 2020 Got new FeatherCraft “new gear” that has some incredible game changers with 7 segments @ 2 “ long. They got new jig shaped shanks too. Other stuff if that’s allowable here. Simm’s prices are off the wall. https://www.feather-craft.com/new_fly_fishing_gear Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
