jamieofthenorth 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2020 Dark Spruce Streamer Variant, size 6 (9XL). Came across this recipe in the above book and it jumped out at me a bit. Combines elements of other streamers I've been having success with so I thought I would give it a whirl. Added copper wire ribbing for durability and a little extra weight. Botched the tail a bit in the above pic, but otherwise pretty happy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
