hydropsyche Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I have to apologize, but I can't remember what materials I used in this pattern. All I know is I tied it up when I was tying all my other Czechs. You can tell it has a scud back and I used mono for the rib, but I can't remember what I used for the body or the spikey thorax. I think its mink, but I'm not 100% sure. All I can guarantee is that I tied it as a Czech nymph (heavy). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulltrout Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 looking good everyone...if anyone else wants to contribute and enter, there's still a few hours left...a lot better response to this one than what i thought there would be...hopefully, after a couple more contests, we'll get some more turnouts like last year (i know some people are still getting the hang of it all)...thanks again to all who submitted... (P.S.. just so you know, the more contests you enter, the higher your seeding in the KOTV tourney in Mar. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
