mikey99 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 Interesting thread! I have been working on this fly for well over a month, and I am about to put head cement on it and call it a fly. My first Ronn Lucas hook, so you can see why I would take my time on this one. Phew!!! SheZ WOW! Do NOT take that fly anywhere near the water! Amazing fly, nice job!

jacktjl 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2008 Been tying a ton of caddis larva #12 #14 #16 and #18 in browns, greens, tans and olives. Has anybody seen the pre-spun dubbing brushes coming out of the Czech Republic? The make tying caddis larva, isopods, scuds and Czech nymphs so easy. I've also been playing around with some crayfish patterns. Yes I saw a youtube video on making dubbing brushes about a year ago and made my own contraption which works pretty well. I buy 32 guage wire at the craft store. You can also purchase the devices now but I would have to search again to find it. There are a number of videos on youtube.

Philly 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2008 Claudia: The underbody is E-Z Body tubing. I folded Sili Skin over it. The tail, I think, is Mirror Image. I did the colors with permanent markers. Added eyes and coated it with a clear flexible varnish I picked up in a craft store. Tied on 4 or 6XL hooks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
