This way to rig the hook is sooo good! I first saw it in your Disco Sculpin-video, and have showed it to all my friends. Genious! And so useful! It works even on an ordinary zonker-fly with a long wing/tail. Usually the fish bites the tail, and misses the hook, but with this rig I can nail them...
Some believe there's a better hook up down because of the fishes mouth . Going hook up you get less snags. Personally traditional wet flies and mid column scadi flies (like the foxy dog or senyo predator scandi) I fish hook down... near bottom i fish hook up i.e sculpins, winter patterns ( plus there hard to tie so a loss sucks)
GORGEOUS pattern…EXCELLENT TIE !!!! I love EVERYTHING about this pattern beginning to end…two thumbs WAY WAY up !! L 👍🎣👍

Do you guys have plans to do the pine squirrel, trout size Graboid? Would love to see it!
Sweet! Thanks Ben!
I'm color blind! Is that thread pink or orange?
Whats the total length of the fly? just wondering how long to make the rabbit off the end of the shank?
Mossys fly shop!!!!!
