Do you love big bluegill?

864... Not really. But I was with Lori today at the Dollar Store, and she was helping me find tying materials. Flashabou, feathers and a few other goodies were discovered.

This fly was an attempt at "backwards" tying. I've wondered if we could reverse the usual procedures, i.e., instead of working forward, I started at the front and worked to the hook bend.

#8 Sproat hook.
Black chenille
Bead head
Red $ Store feather.

Seems to have worked.
