Man, you've been busy.  I was wondering where you'd gotten off to.

Well, these were all my designs (of course two were my interpretations of Brook's series and the New Zeland Killer streamers).  Just another3 ways to get a giggle out of the fish!

I got a swap I'll probably post tomorrow.

For those of us ( like me) who like streamers this is shaping up as a great swap. I'm sure there will be some variety like the Mosquito and the Platinum Blond but right now the arrivals and mine are all great looking streamer styles. Gadabout has one a bit unusual that really looks "fishy".

Finally had some luck in the woods - believe it get hunted pretty hard being state land so close to a highly populated area. The hide/tail are currently under a thick coat of Borax so hopefully be ready in a week or so to get a dozen something or another tied up with fresh Michigan squirrel. 
 

son was impressed I could shoot a squirrel right in the head and save all that hair for tying. Little does he know- probably couldn’t make that difficult of a shot again - that little guy was hiding well way up in a large oak.

Well done @Squeezy

Your helper looks like he is having a 'Good Time"

Good times make for great memories.

Just one? Looks nice and plump. 

Good to see, good memories of hunting with my Dad and brothers back in the day.
