For me, my go-to fly is the Carey Special in peacock. I would say I have fished it in size 8-12.

I like twisting several strands up with thin wire.It is virtually indestructible when tied with a dubbing loop.
thanks for this tip.I like twisting several strands up with thin wire.
Huge Simi Seal fan, since buying a portion of John Rohmers company we will be working on a handful of new blends specifically for Stillwater here in the PNW!Simi-seal leech with a red glass bead sz. 10 (or 8) 3xl. Line depends on depth but usually type 6, cast, count down and strip.

HAHA I Love it! I also think one of the biggest wins here is that we are going to live on his legacy and his product to a T. We've spent so much hands on time with him mastering his craft over the years, while adding a PNW flare with various blends. The other portion is selling to a far larger company and Im unsure as to their time spent together. As easy as dubbing sounds to create its easy to get it wrong! One thing that also is worth mentioning is almost all raw materials we source here in the PNW too!

Hmm, I think @Bruce Baker might be on to something. You could use an elastic band to attach pork rind trailers on your jigs. Next level!-Just chartreuse thread wraps
