Has anyone ever substituded the feather wing, and tail on a minnow muddler with zonker strips?? It looks, and works great.

I never tried zonker strips, but I do prefer to use marabou vs. turkey. The gills seem to prefer it too.

You name it and you can bet someone has done it already. Tying a brand new fly is one of the hardest things there is to do in the fly tying world.
I have seen many flies tied in magazines that people are spouting as new and they have been around for many years. People just think they are new.
I believe you would have to come up with a whole new material and a new way to use it to have a new fly and that is hard to do.
Just my opinion. Ron
