Mini Wigglers
The Fly Rod Rapalica
Small, light and easy to cast.
Dives and wiggles like a daemon.
You can make them as small and lite or as large and heavy as you want.
Made with closed-cell foam body--the diving lip comes from a tomato container roughed up with 220 paper,
and glued to the body with CA glue. Hook keeper is flat waxed nylon.
The body is built on an ultra-thin needle, prior to gluing to the bill.
Body is also coated with water based fabric cement as a last step.
This one uses a size #18 DaiRiki 125. Bead goes between hook eye
and the back side of the diving lip.
