    Wow, those are incredible. Those bright, fluorescent ones look amazing. Those heads look like they'd have some great darting action.

    How did you learn how to weave those bodies? All the ones that have woven bodies look a little "caterpillarish" to me.

    I learned to crochet them with hours and hours of finagling, fixing, modifying and testing. Took me forever to get them to look just right. I started with the tapered ones you see online but didn't like them. So I figured out hot to build the body up and make it look like I needed it to look.

    Tying them on a jig head with a collar has made it so much easier than trying to build the entire body on a fly hook.
    I love taking my kids fishing, now if I could just manage to fish at the same time.

    Well here is #4, the final of the set. Now I just need to get the smaller version of each one done. Will be a while though, have a lot to tie for others before hand.
