After fish destroyed my other worm ties so I ended up tying with ultra chenille. This has held up very well also am able to taper the ends like worm by using lighter. Probably not necessary but gives a more worm like appearance.
Pictures have a # 12 swivel for size comparison. I also been trying a rubber leg variant but have yet to try fishing it. Some of the materials I have been using , larva lace , hackle , ultra chenille , crazy legs , wire, peacock herl , ,tungsten beads and 1/100oz -1/80 oz jig heads.
These are simple and easy to tie and so far the fish have agreed with my imagination. The rubber tail ones I have yet to try but I see no reason for them not to work.

Very nice job there. Those should work well.

They all look good. Nice colors and I do like that gold hook.

I do not see any reason why they would not catch fish they definitely look good and you have good color combinations I have never tied up a jig leaving a piece of Chanel for the tail I don't see any reason to why it would not work.

A friend of mine ties some flies using a small piece of ultra chenille for a tail,they work pretty good for gills.

Look like fish catchers to me, I might even have to try some for trout and steelhead. Have you ever tried adding a stinger hook to them right in the end of the chenille so you get those short bites?

I have tried tying a trailer hook on a few before. I don't care for how it affects the action
overall. Besides I don't seem to get many " short strikes ". Seems like the bigger gills just engulf the thing.
