No M8, it's a B170 with a bend in it, missed a bit of hair at the bend . Do you think it will work ?

I liked the idea of the Antron tag. I don't think we use enough of it these days

I think it needs a little tweaking maybe as I dont know how it will sit in the water with the way the hair is tied on the bend.

It will sit high and dry mate and pull up them big fishes. The tail below the bend is supposed to cause a bit of disturbance in the water as it get's pulled through the wave.

It's not a sedgehog , it's a hedgehog

B170 seem to give a more solid hookup on sedgehogs, sorry hedgehogs, emergerogs

the emergerog is born.
