Bottom is store bought Shaughnessy’s nyacca baitfish.

Then from bottom to top are my first four attempts to replicate. Clearly I’m not great at hollow tying synthetics!

Restocking on peach snot darts. Caught equal amounts of fish on peach and orange yesterday, but there were more Cutts on the peach and more Rezzies on the orange.

I dunno, might be room for a few more. Maybe chartreuse. No flash.

Don't think I'd be too worried. Better than anything I can do. Practice =improvement.

Schooner or lager that has to get eaten. One would hop for schooner.

Craven’s Govt Cheese (variation)

These worked very well this year; a little fussy to tie at first but they get easier with practice and worth the effort. Tied here as a spruce moth; caribou for the wing(s) gives a variegated effect.

rib - Mirage Flash opal
body - Aussie possum bleached
underwing - Congo Hair shiner tan/tan/brown/olive blend

Those black ones are very similar to what I used except I didn't bother with eyes. Are they Nayat? Mine had a bucktail/nayat tail with a head made of a composite dubbing loop with long nayat and shorter strung fuzzy fiber. Even had the blue flash.

Hope the weather has settled down enough and you guys have a great week!
