That’s a great pattern! The simple idea of tying in the fins and the cover piece really creates the profile that you’re looking for, and gives you specific places to apply the UV resin.
Nice fly, I just found your channel tonight. I am in hopes that you have other video's on you channel. I will check it out tonight. Thanks for sharing that simple sculpin. I do have the sculpin helmets but will have to cut my rabbit strips as I only have the regular ones. What is the measure of the strip? Mine are 1/8 inch, those look like either 1/4 or 3/8ths. Thanks again. Sean
any large hook I use I put a small piece of micro tubing (euro strike indicator tubing) onto the hook point from stabbing my fingers . It works great, with less blood.
What's your reason for tying in the three pieces of rabbit to create pectorals rather than spinning the rabbit in a dubbing loop and then trimming it from under the hook? Except for the rabbit being a little shorter, that would seem to do the same thing but be faster and easier, and maybe more durable too.
@@zachschreurs7759 That's reasonable. I loathe coneheads and their ilk (prefer beads), so if I tied something like this I would make a fuller head with fur and maybe trim some of it to shape behind a jig bead, so filling in under the helmet wouldn't be a factor for me. Stumbled on this fly when looking for simple jig-style sculpins for fishing under indicators from a drift boat.
