    Its the Crappie Candy, Don. Except that particular one is a yellow chartreuse one rather than the original fluorescent green (I tie them in the original fluorescent green also). I use the Needloft nylon yarn also rather than the original wool. The eyes on that particular one are small black beadchain eyes.

    dixieangler;

    Thanks for the clarification. Love the Crappie Candy! I use some more subtle colors for the body myself with good success. I have been meaning to try some yellow to gold colors though, as there are a lot of mooneye and such that are loose in the local waters. Just have not done so since the current choices work. . . . . .
