tie off thread and...

I tie this in ten colors

It will work, heck you might catch a catfish or something.

might even ketch a Kentuckie



i think its my first spot of this strange year

Nice. Now I have something to do with the 1000 or so offset worm hooks that I don't use any longer.

Pondbass, great use of materials. Simplicity is the beauty of tying sometimes (that does not include Atlantic Salmon flies )

Now imagine putting a plastic worm on that hook. That would be something that the big old Sage Largemouth fly rod could handle. That is not related to this thread but the opportunity to illuminate a point arose so I took it; kinda like how like old bass will rise to opportunities!

Pondbass, I have seen a slightly different version of this. Coat the skin or leather side of the bunny strip with a clear, flexible adhesive, then before the adhesive dries sprinkle glitter on it. You can coat the entire surface or just the head or tail.

hmmm, I like that

landed a chunky 1lber on it yesterday
