Rex, thanks for the heads-up on the source for the gloves!  I'll have to get some ASAP.

Nice bugs.  I'm still fishing, although not for Sunnies much.  I probably won't start tying for next year for another month or so.  At least I'm going to have a winter hobby that will still let me focus on fishing.

Chewy skin heh? Hope it's not something I will be carving out of my own blubber LOL Thanks Rick.

Look up chewy skin

Comment by Leo Nguyen on October 20, 2012 at 4:12pm

Rex, that's what I'm using. I'm using an abandoned pair of latex dishwashing gloves from the wash room. It does have a very subtleness to it. Just wondering if there's anything else out there that can create that chewing softness of a waxworm. It does make a perfect mealworm. I wonder..maybe a rubberband internal, and a dishwashing layer outside?

Mike,  glad to know I'm not the only one with a tying addiction.  Luckily there is a support group on here, but I think it works just the opposite of AA's philosophy,  it makes us want to tie more.  Leo,  I found thick latex dishwashing gloves at the dollar tree stores that work perfect for waxworms.  They were a natural flesh color and the perfect thickness for making the segmented look.
