Tying this sample on completely different measurement hooks with minor variations will end in and assortment of bugs that can be utilized successfully on most spring creeks. Remove the tail and antennae, add a longitudinal line of black wire (or comparable materials) to make an important sow-bug sample.
In an effort to not tie examples of ordinary patterns (there are tons of of these on the market), I’m persevering with to share my one-off stuff and variants. The departures and hacks price noting on this sample embrace the layering of lead wire, utilizing the Submit-It Observe tack strip to align and maintain supplies earlier than transferring them to a clip, utilizing a fluorocarbon counter rib, and naturally the bathroom bowl ring as an affordable lifetime provide of cheesy dubbing wax.
