Lol anything that will make the river bottom stick to the fly. I used uv resin, super glue, might try some sort of paste next. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaydub 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2021 Here is something I tied, maybe a decade ago. The idea came form a some website, maybe flyanglersonline? The "gravel" is something model railroaders use. It can be purchased at a store that caters to that hobby. I think I tried both Dave's Flexament and 5 minute epoxy. I don't remember which worked better. Basically you coat the body with adhesive, roll it in the "gravel", then form it with your fingers and cover any bare spots. I didn't fish this very much, opting for patterns with more traditional tying materials. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
