Hi
An attempt to make an imitation for lazy fishermen
You just dangle this fly over a reef.
MIGHTY MUSCLE WORM
Pic of the real one is from "Two Oceans" by Branch et. al.

HI Craig,
I think any reef or gully fish will eat that, nice fly.

Handle every situation like a dog.- If you cant hump it, piss on it and walk away. --JASPER.
How do you get the chenille like that? with the flash etc inside it? i have a place at stilbaai and really want to try this fly!

Furled? sorry about the questions! I am new to tying. All i can tie is pretty much a PTn haha. Do you just twist it or plait it or what??
Sorry!
Chris
Can recommend some good books & DVD's :-)
Double up the chenille, so that what you have is double the length of the worm
Tie the center to the hook, tie in the flash for one side (start with front)
Twist the chenille a lot so that when you give it slack, it curles itself up.
tie off and do the back.
Perhaps I should do a paint-by-numbers thingy?
Regards
Craig
Is'nt that exposed hook going to be a problem? I recal from R&S that we used to thread the worm onto the hook....was that just toe secure the worm or to hide the hook or both....I dont know!!!
