Default Peter ross on a longshank

Tied on a kamasan longshank size 10, would maybe suit a shorter shanked hook tied in this style. Slightly split JC unfortunately after it was tied in. (floogloo anybody?)

Tied on a shorter shanked hook with the seals fur body dubbed slimmer to give a more streamline effect, the teal cloaked around the shank as before

I always tie a few on L/s for the sea troot and summer grilse (size 10)
Nice tie although i take the silver further down the shank. I also do a sort of vairiant with Squirrell instead of Teal
Works a treat.
