I like it. Would be a great gill jig if could be made with a 1/32. I tear the gills up with that color combo..

I have a weave jig that I always felt like it would pass as a catalpa also, but I tied this 6 years ago. Strange thing that I never tried one, lol!

Like your ties and the out of the box thinking you have going on!

Thanks.I thought the same thing.A 1/32 would be great on a beetle spin too.May have to try some smaller ones.

Absolutely is a ton of info on that site! I learned much of my tying from there, no videos back then, lol! The Other Fly Tying Lessons are all good and they have a great tips page as well! Once of my favorite tied from there is the Crappie Candy Fly...

Crappie Candy - "Fly of the Week #198 - FAOL"

I have tied a lot of these.
