    Default Stenersen CFO SBS



    JS Stenersen's salute to petrochemical byproducts; this much foam and rubber makes me proud to be a carbon-based life form. A study in tying backwards; notional sequence.


    hook - Dai Riki 280 #8
    thread - UTC 140 woodduck
    legs - medium rubber brown
    rib - x-small wire copper
    body - Ice Dub golden brown
    hackle - brown (undersize by 2)
    shellback - 2mm foam golden
    wing - Congo Hair shiner tan
    indicator - 2mm foam orange


    Part 1

    mash barb start thread; wrap to bend




    tie in rear legs; fold and wrap to bend






    tie in rib




    dub thread/dub body to 1 eye width from eye






    tie in hackle; palmer rearwards to bend






    capture tip of hackle with wire; continue ribbing forward, helicopter end/cover with thread

    A few pieces of coal for the eyes would have maintained your theme, ha!

    A couple of pieces of coal for eyes would have been consistent with your petrochemical by-product theme. It's a fish catcher.
