Lizard

This one's 7.5 inches long. Perhaps a smaller one should be tied for smallmouth bass, of maybe 4-5 inches in length. I'm hopeful that its tail floats well. The combination of dumbbell with googly eyes provides similar advantages to fishing a lightweight football jig. This could be fished as a 'bed dragger' for some in largemouth bass circles.


Materials:
  • Gamakatsu 02412 Octopus Hook 2/0
  • UTC Ultra Thread 210 denier - red
  • 7/32" dumbbell eyes - unpainted
  • Googly eyes - 4 mm diameter
  • Lion Brand Suede Yarn - olive
  • Pony beads - olive shades
  • Craft fur - olive gray
  • Loctite Super Glue Gel - amazing stuff
  • Clear nail polish
  • 0.3 mm 7-strand beading wire for guard
  • Elastic cord - black
  • Latigo lace
