I finally lined up a few for a picture session

The legs are longer than the 1st generation (white one)

At first I thought they might tangle, but they don't and seem to perform better.

Tying instruction are quite simple

Tied like a wooly bugger with rubber legs at the tail and around the neck. I used to glue doll eyes on the head, but found the break off after a while. These have them painted on over the epoxy and then "head-cemented" for a gloss

The 2 in the top left corner are cross between my chili pepper and a Pancora Crawfish. Perfect for stained water. Haven't tried them on trout, but... :D
