My Variation of a Springs Wiggler. The only difference is I used Antron instead of squirel tale, and put eyes on it. Tied one up this morning with Red Chenille.

First Soft Hackle. Any input on this fly?

Latex Wiggler, simply put. Get used to tying these, and you make a doz or so up in less than 30min.

Seen a fly like this somewhere, but can' remember. I guess the Coho go nuts over these, and Steelhead will take them as well(?).

Thanks guys. Actually the Springs Wiggler is pretty much the same thing as a Antron Bug. The only reall difference between the two is a Spring Wiggler is tied with Suirrel Tail and the Antron Bug is tied with Antron Yarn. Bodies are tied with the same, Chenille, and the hackles are a preference, thread of course you match with body.

I am trying different ways and colors for the Wiggler pattern, so I will be puting more pic's up of different styles and colors. But that will meen going out and buying more goodies

Yeah that is what I did. I tied in the tip first, then did a few wraps. Should I start around the middle of the feather, instead of the tip?

I appreciate all the tips that you guys throw out. Thanks.
