Some pan fish/bass/chain pickerel flies. These are ugly. They might have a name, but I don't know what it is.

Hook: TMC 5262, size 6

Thread: 3/0 tying thread/clear polyester thread

Tail: Zonker Strip,

Body: 3/0 tying thread built over Zonker strip, color to match or contrast with tail.

Thorax/collar over eyes: Ice or sparkle chenille

Eyes: Plastic beads on 200# mono tied on bottom of hook shank

Wing: Marabou color to match or contrast with tail

Head: 3/0 thread built up, finished with clear polyester thread.

Some buck tail jigs tied on 1/16 oz over the counter jigs. I'll use these as streamers, most likely with my 8 wgt. I'll have to see how they cast with my 6 wgt.
