I have tied some of these but have not found any instructions. What do you think you are missing? I just tied them the from the material receipe.
Could not find the tying instructions but I did find the recipe.

I hope this is some help. John
on mine, all i did was put a mylar tubing body on it with lead underneath, then put a rabbit strip over the back, then put on a muddler head. it worked, but it seems like its missing something
