Chenille body
Marabou tail
1/64 or 1/32 head
#8 or #6 hook
Solid black is a killer.
Attachment 351323These lures range from 1/48 to 1/16 once. Hook size is # 10 to # 6.
Those are some leggy little critters.
RLS40, those look like they might be illegal in Minnesota waters. You should send them immediately down here to Skeetbum and I before you get yourself into a predicament.
Great looking box!!!
My Bluegill favorite is a fly that has about 4 or 5 wraps of led wire around the shank under the chenille. Called a Bream Killer and can have a tail or not. Actual recipe legs are White, but I did some different for kicks. Still will send the email we have talked about. Think a #10 hook.

How do those cast?
If you don't fly fish, tie it on a jig hook and cast with a spinning rod.Quote:

Or as you said tie on a jig hook...
You could do that, too. I just prefer the jig hook if I want the bait to go deep. For shallow fishing, I like the fly rod.Quote:
