    Default Take a Ride


    Here's a build where I didn't know what I would end up with, just taking it step by step and figuring it out along the way.

    You might need blinders for this.

    It is a what looks like a number two streamer hook with a little piece of lead added. First material is mullet fur, with shrimp whiskers over, and red bucktail on top.

    Added some Claret chenille here and there, and of course the minnowhead with red eyes added.

    UV glue over the top.Name:  PXL_20220604_171555479.jpg

    Must have got into something while cutting grass!

    This one is rough. Thought about putting UV glue down the mid section over the chenille spots but liked the candy-like appearance of the light coat.

    It will get some water time though.

    I didn't try it today but think it will work.

    Wrapping over the chenille and then putting glue over the little bits sticking up looks pretty good....like a hard candy glistening.

    I was planning on building up a body with UV but decided to leave it like that for now.
