1st stab at a thunder creek streamer

[Brodrash 0]

The eye is definitely rough but other than that what do you guys think?

Don't loosen your grip on the rod ... fish are gonna hit that hard if they're chasing minnows.

nice 1st try....

 

per keith fulshers book

 

hook = 4xl to 6xl straight eye hook (preferred) (down eyed hooks can be used)

 

belly hair is lighter (white/tan) than back hairs

 

imo hair should be fine bucktail and straight as possible. tied sparse. marabou is another material that can be used. i have used schlappen to tie mini thundercreeks as a test pattern.

 

proportion of the head is about 1/3 of the hook shank

 

 

 

good video
