do you have a recipe ?

 

[Xavier_Molina]

Bruno, here is the recipe

 

[Xavier_Molina]

Sorry, I just noticed I posted the recipe in spanish hehehe

Anzuelo = hook
ninfa = nymph
alambre de cobre=copper wire
patas=legs
ojos=eyes

Te eyes are 2 1/8 " beads joined with 50lb monofilament

cool- keep posting in spanish. I can learn a couple of things at once

I've always wondered about patterns like this... if they have barbell eyes (or connected with mono) won't they be suspended technically upside-down? If so, why don't we tie these patterns upside-down... so the flashback should be on the bottom of the fly, and legs on top.... just an observatoin.

Nice Pattern, Thanks!

Looks like a dragonfly nymph if I've ever saw one. Gonna have to tie some of them up.
