First try; body/tail junction a bit clunky. Further experimentation to follow but these are a hell of a lot easier for me to tie than Paradrakes, and the heads won’t blow out after a fish or two.

hook - WFC Model 10 #8
thread/rib - GloBrite #11
core - 20lb mono
tail - moose body hair
body - 1mm foam olive/2mm foam chartreuse
wing - Congo Hair white
hackle - grizzly dyed chartreuse
legs - medium rubber black

Regards,
Scott
