that looks great thier paymaster. can you do it in brown? and have you done any type of grasshoppers or bees?

Yep,I got brown and green foam,just have to get the right color hopper legs. And as for bees,The McGinty pattern looks like a bumble bee.

That does look really nice Paymaster. I figured after reading about you that you would love the challenge.

Thanks,I feel like with the correct foam body material,it would be a better tie. The stuff I got is probably too soft.

Hey Paymaster, add those two appendages coming out the rear for a complete look

OK here it is. I am gonna try some other material when I can get it.No wing case because I don't like the way it looks and the fish can't see it anyway.

With all those pre-formed parts you might as well go to a toy shop, buy some plastic bugs and glue them to a hook.

Only preform was the hopper legs.
