Some saltwater #4 complex twist Buggers for my local snook and reds

 

 

Nice! I bet some "Big O" bucket mouths would slurp those up in a hurry.

Bulb, you actually put the hook through your skin for the picture. What size is that?

 

Mike W, nice looking crease flies. Love the paint job. Do you wrap the hook on something for the foam to hold on to?

Its just through the outer skin, doesn't hurt at all ;) The streaking caddis is a size 14

From what I hear they use big flies in NZ ...lot's of terrestrials etc

But just for the record nice flies and it would depend where you are fishing of course :)

I've been looking for more uses for all the pheasant that I have. I threw together this all pheasant bugger last night. It's given me an idea for a crayfish pattern.
