Bit Different Stimulator

[fish4trout]

Nice one Bryon.....I hope you dont think I was trying to put you down because I wasnt.... I just lke mine a little fatter! I will try and hook up some lights tonight and see if I can get some pics to come out. I have actually started tying one that has a little bullet head and a little front hackle... it is pretty cool... may not be considered a stimi any more though.

Fish4:

Fed this one overnight. Tied a bit differently. Fatter, underwing, and brown hackle in front.

No offense taken. I understand that most are "robust". I thought the thinner one might be a better floater.

The one on the left is the new one I have been working on for the yellow stones in June. I guess you probably really woudnt call that a stimi anymore but it floats like a cork with that double layer of elk hair. the one on the right is just my own traditional stimi I use for the Salmon Fly hatch and Oct Caddis. Btw those tails are short on purpose. They get very stiff when you tie them that short. I think it helps it float better.

You know what.... I messed with that camera for about an hour trying to find the Macro setting again.... I finally found it about 10 min after I posted those pics..... Oh well maybe I will retake them tonight.
