young gun Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Have spring fever so I tied up some meat teasers.
Long Lines Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Very nice. Have been tying a few flies using the Big Weenie heads. How do you tie to the tubing? Two sizes, one over the other like some flies on the market?Checked the instructional videos here w/o much luck...will check you tube as well.
young gun Posted February 8, 2014 Author Posted February 8, 2014 Long lines its easy. Take a inch piece of clear tube put a small dab of hot glue on the tube then hold your Mylar end on the glue. After thirty second wrap it around the tube applying a small dab of hot glue every wrap. Then at the end hot glue the end to your wrapped mylar hold it then take thread and wrapped it.vote your thread off then apply head cement.
Priority1 Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Blake, Nice work on the teasers. They say necessity is the mother of invention. In this case boredom is the father. It's always special to catch fish on your own rigs.
young gun Posted February 9, 2014 Author Posted February 9, 2014 I love the way the flies turned out too. Can you guys recommend the best color meat heads for those teasers? And where to get them?
