Hi Hootsmun... Nice ties. I'm not too sure though if legs on full-blown muddler affair add much to the efficacy of said muddler. I think maybe on a more sparsely dressed muddler type thing, that the legs get more room to breathe and get noticed.

What I do like, is a natural (deer hair/hares ear etc) and orange combo... Lethal

Adding the legs is more of a tying exercise more than anything,seeing how much i could squeeze onto a size 12

Nice work there I agree 100% with scratch though ( painful as it is ) about the legs being over kill . I did used to add legs to mine but have done away with it now ..

Fair enough on you reasons for adding them and legs do look nice

Nice one

Cheers mate.Ive ditched the legs and added more hackle before i spin the deer hair.

What about adding some knotted rubber legs to it would add that extra bit of movement to it?
