been playin a bout with a few new materials to try and find a nice emerger pattern, here are a few prototypes. also got hold of some latex sheeting from ovis for £1.85, its nice and thick just right for pupa id say.

Very nice.........that bug would be a 'catcher' not a sacrificial

The parachute is excellent.......love the body - a real fish catcher.

thanks bugsy- i made it with a 3mm tungsten bead, instead of brass but to compensate i have left the underbody free of lead of any kind plus it is a size 14- glad she aint a sacrifical

should have tapered the body a little more on the para me thinks. perhaps a darker thorax aswell, but hey its only really a blueprint
