More Chenille-Bodied Tube Style Baits

Added a couple of olive-colored tubes to my box recently.  Used Lion Brand Suede Yarn (olive) and Wapsi Sili Legs (olive/black flake) to form the bodies and tentacles.  Dotted the bodies with black Tulip Puffy Paint.


If the rain would ever end for a while, perhaps I'll field test them in the local river.
