This is on a Jens Pilgaard Artistic hook..... i palmered a dyed Grizzly hackle through the body from the third turn of ribbing, and i used 4 Chinese Pond Heron feathers for the collar.

This one's on a Reinhold hook. Chinese Pond feathers again and a Trag wing, with Japanese silk floss body, and a palmered hackle. Holographic tinsel tag.

Re: Artistic Hybreds.....for lack of a better term, lmao
Simple little fly with a cheap bead that has little windows/mirrors all round it. Wing is Coc-D'-Leon.....got the bead(s) at Walmart.....always remember and NEVER forget thatyou can find GREAT "Stuff" at places like Walmart, Target, Hobby Lobby, JoAnn's, Dollar stores, antigues shops, flea markets, Michael's, and a huge variety of places other than on the internet (where you can never handle the product first), and in fly shops (where things are always over-priced), etc. Just like in the tyin' itself........USE YOUR IMGINATION. After-all, you got one.

Re: Artistic Hybreds.....for lack of a better term, lmao
Nothing there a that a good sharp scissors couldn't sort out Andrew . A couple or large jungle cock eyes to close gap between wing and body and I would happily fish it on my favorite sea trout estuary at the start of a coming spring tide.GlassJet wrote:OK Willowhead - you've asked for it...
