Thread 8/0 brown or black Tail Moose mane Body Peacock hurl & red floss Overbody Deer or elk hair Wing White calf tail or white antron Hackle Brown & grizzly or brown at least Comment: Dennis will also demonstrate a variation of the standard Humpy using foam. Be sure to have some foam olours of your choice (brown, tan, black or a bright colour), then basically the same materials as a regular humpy.

RangerBob Posted December 14, 2006 Author Share Posted December 14, 2006 (edited) Nicely done Dennis. I actually learned a few things last night, including why bother tying size 24. Edited December 15, 2006 by RangerBob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerBob Posted December 15, 2006 Author Share Posted December 15, 2006 Some other "Christmas Leech" pattern I think. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisS Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 RB great pictures. As I said this was just a fun night and hoped that it would make doing humpies much easier. For the Christmas leech I'm hoping it will be a killer out at Muir & Dolberg next fishing season. Maybe even a Brother to the Impoved Llama Leech on Grayling.
