Cheap, durable and easy hopper legs.

I find it impossible to tie the knot for pheasant tail hopper legs and it’s expensive to buy pre knotted ones. Also, they aren’t that durable.

I “borrowed” some of my wife’s nylon beading cord to test out-


Easy to tie-


The legs are still in good shape after 20 savage takes-

Love it! You might even burn the ends to keep it together and give it a black tip

Nice work Paul.

Good idea Brad.

This looks really nice. I'm assuming rubber legs aren't stiff enough for this type of fly?
