Flat Rock native 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2017 Looks like this week is off on a great roll. Thanks Scott. I am thinking of tying some on light-wire hooks as gifts for my Crappie fishing friends, maybe subbing in some less chewable materials or maybe not. Trout will sure eat this As Is. Great Share!!

Chenille body and a grizzly hackle tip wing would be a bit more durable and probably work pretty well for specks. Regards, Scott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
