dronlee 0 Report post Posted October 25, 2013 A friend asked me, can you tie a Airhead pattern... I said, I will try... So this is my version of a hollow head baitfish pattern which I call MagicHead Baitfish, which a bit similar with the Airhead pattern. It's simple to tie... Material list : Marc Petitjean Magic Head SF Blend Polar Flash Mirror Flash as lateral line ( optional ) Ice Dub ( Optional ) Saltwater Hook Deer Creek Gator eye Deer Creek UV resin Step by step tying instruction: http://dronsworld.blogspot.com/2013/10/magichead-baitfish.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msueirro 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2014 Not to take away from Marc Petitjean's revenue, but you can achieve the same effect by tieing on a piece of mesh tubing, with the opening facing forward, over the eye. Be sure to melt the edge of the tubing before you cut it so it doesn't fray on you. Then, in the same fashion as the magic head, just push the tubing back over the tie-in point and you will have the same sort of cupped spacer. Tie the remainder of this fly exactly as Dronlee has done. And by the way, Dron, I think you are an absolute artist. Your work is always amazing.
