will it catch?

[mart_s]

ok so maybe i should start off by saying i'm no tyer i don't even have any tools only a vice my mate gave me a couple of weeks ago, the only materials i have are some red crystal flash and some red utc thread that i use to dress the rear trebles on my handmade jerkbaits (pike lures) i build.

whilst brushing my dog today the glove was covered in hairs and an idea popped into my head, so seen as i had to dress up a treble and the vice was out i created this the jack russel nymph



and here's my jack russell she's a nice colour for collecting hairs to use for dubbing



i will get some materials and start properly in the next few weeks just did this for a laugh

it sure will catch at the right conditions anything will catch. that the way i think of it when i tie something up and think "will it catch?"
good idea of using dog fur by the way

[g bigtrout]

Yes....and dont be afraid to dabble with what materials you find lying about.





There is always room for a creation.

just remebered my mate brought me a hen pheasant and a drake up a few weeks ago after he'd been out with his harris hawk, i saved the tails of the hen and the cdc feathers of the drake could of made a JRPTN

[robgallon]

you ever used the tail feathers from the harris hawk.I used some offmy sons hawk they worked ok along with some springer spaniel ear hair and also some ferret body fur

[kenster]

It'll catch plenty of fish...no problem at all.
