More Yarn Ties

I really enjoy tying these on weedless sproat hooks.  Used Premier LashMax eyelash yarn to tie both of them.  Black felt cord comprises the legs of the Black-N-Purple Crawler pictured below.  Its hook is a 3/0.  The Electric Chicken Rat beneath it has a 1/0 hook.

These may be field tested on fly rods, in addition to light spinning, as I now possess 8-wt. and heavier rods in my collection.

    1. Paul,

      I'm glad you've liked it. Thank you very much for your wonderful comment. I've been trying harder to keep it updated more frequently as "new-to-me" ideas arise.
