Hey! That craft hair thunder creek looks really cool. Love it.

 

Mine there is a buggy bonker... kind of a scaled down bonker zonker you can cast with a light rod... rides hook up to avoid them weeds.

Got three left. I'm having problems with consistency. Whacked a few of them with the razor and started over. Should be done tomorrow or Sat. at the latest. Sorry for the holdup guys.

Yup, it is a woven green caddis. Got the idea from a step by step that duckydoty did and modified with soft hackle and turkey biots. Not sure yet how it will do on trout but bluegills love them. I think that the segmented look that the weave gives adds a lot. They are weighted slightly and are killer on a strip retrieve.
