Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

This is the 1st large dragonfly nymph for this fall. Need a little leg work and down one size on the eyes. Hope you see this Tooty and give me your input since you tried out the smaller dragonfly nymphs.

Dragonfly nymphs are wicked little critters in their world.
This captures the look of their predatory ways.

very nice dick.and remember some d-fly nymphs are real big.some even eat minnows.a cool thing i saw for eyes was glass beads with shrink wrap stretched over each eye.really gives them that alien look.exactly how you accomplish this escapes me but it did give the eyes a special look.

Thanks John. It has to be fine tuned yet it will be better after I tie a dozen or so.
