A friend mentioned @Nick Clayton rubber leg clouser. This is a bit different and I’ve had this on my mind, so I tied one up today.
High tie clouser with some rubber legs for the wing. Hopefully the legs move well.

This is one of my favorite flies! I like to put a thorax bump of peacock herl or peacock (or green) ice dub behind the hackle, to keep it propped up and keep it from collapsing against the body.

Shipman’s Muddler (variation)

Based on a suspender version; I’d probably need to tie it on a longer shank hook to get the back end down and have it hang off the front. Also, as it turned out, I could have spun more deer hair for the head, but this should float reasonably well.

hook - WFC Model 6 #10
thread - SemperFli Nano Silk 30d black
shuck - indicator yarn hot orange
rib - H2O Twist tan
body - hare’s ear dubbing
shoulder - hen pheasant body feather
collar/head - deer hair
post - 2mm foam tan (folded)

X-mas morning SRC shrimp. I should be able to get out 3-4 times over the next 10 days so filling up the boxes..

Yep, Christmas morning dreaming of the river. As for the body on this one, I found some old muskrat in my materials. I just tied a thin strip on, on the leather haha. Laid down super glue first. Might cast like shit but I suspect they’ll chew on it. They probably don’t get muskrat that often and it might be a nice change of pace from all the rabbit and fowl.
