Tie the eyes, rib, back and feelers, dub the body, pull the scudback over, rib and tie off, leaving the scudback a bit longer over the hook eye to form the tail (telzon) of the shrimp. Use the needle to pick out the dubbing. <br /><br />Sand Flea<br /><br />Hook: Gamakatsu BS10 size 6, weighted<br />Body: estaz orange (roe sack) and white/pearl<br />Shellback: grey craft fur, saturated and shaped with Hard as Hull cement<br />Legs: white/pearl sili legs<br />Feelers: rainbow crystal flash<br /><br />Feelers and weight go first on the shank. Tie the shellback in the hook eye/reverse direction, wind different colours of estaz (orange 1/3 of the body and white for the remaining 2/3), while adding some sili-legs in between. Tie off. Pull the shellback over the estaz body, tie off. Wet the shellback with the cement, pressing to form a tight fitting “helmet.” Trim the sili-legs and you are done!<br /><br />Thanks and hope this helps,<br /><br />Vladflyfishingunlimitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13795514777903025626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23668746.post-83086648286229427192010-05-11T21:59:53.695-04:002010-05-11T21:59:53.695-04:00Those are cool!!
