Charlie1947 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2021 I can't find any supplier that carries a LARGE round rubber leg. I want the stiff type for my poppers and other surface flies! A lot of sites show flies with this type of rubber legs on various flies and I know they are out there, I just can't find any! I appreciate your time! Thanks!

Jaydub 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2021 If you can't find them at a fly shop, you could try cutting open a bungee cord like the one below. It might be hit or miss as far as colors and size. I think the one I opened up had about three sizes and a couple of colors of rubber strands. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted June 2, 2021 The biggest round rubber legs I’ve found from fly shops, medium, will work if you don’t seperate them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skeet, No they don't the pictures I had seen are round, I'm not that picky and I don't think the fish will care! Thanks for your suggestion! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 2, 2021 Rubber bands don’t last long at all.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skeet3t 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2021 I have rubber bands that are over 12 years old. They will probably outlast a fly chewed up by fish. I have used them for many applications. I don't tie with legs as fish have a habit of grabbing thhe legs instead of the fly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikemac1 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2021 If “round” is not imperative, Drew Chicone’s Fettuccini Foam makes a pretty good large leg on big flies. I’ve found it to be very durable and easy to work with. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WadeMade1 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2021 Find a store that uses Wapsi as the supplier and have them order you the bulk supply of Large round rubber legs. Very few color options available in the large. But it's likely what you are looking for. Respectfully, Wade Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
