Bodies are just strips of foam about 3/16th wide....... tied at bend of hook and then folded over toward eye end ..... some cut off just past the eye others tied and folded back again........... still learning, experimenting .......
some ties from last year..........




So windy most of the time last year, only used the flyrod a few times (new at that too) had several hits but missed setting the hook , don`t know if the legs are too long / too short?
