We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

The two best times to go fishing? When it is raining and when it is not.

Wheatenheimer's Mini Mousie Muddler

(Now this is word for word as it appears on the recipe card)

Vintage 1960's era Gold #4 hook

Brown or Black 6/0 thread

Tail

Brown Maraboo

Pink Flash on each side (sparce)

White Kip Tail on each side (sparce)

Brown Buck Tail on top (moderate)

Rib

Red light guage copper wire

Body

Bathed and Combed Golden Retriever Body Hair

Eyes

Black plastic bead chain

Head

Spun Elk hair in a Mousie Cut

Directions

OK, so the hooks I picked up at a Garage Sale about 15 years ago. They were in a Ziploc. I don't know what they are. I also picked up various other fly tying stuff at this same sale that clearly dates from the '60's. I'm guessing that's the era of the hooks too!?

Tie in Maraboo, Pink Flash, Kip Tail and Buck Tail

Tie in Red Copper Wire

Dub an inch & a half of Golden Retriever hair (if you don't have access to this material, I can provide 1 gallon bags for $.99 each. I may hve to brush out my couch!)

Rib-it, keep the Kermit jokes at bay!

tie in the eyes

use a hair stacker to even up the Elk hair to make a nice collar

Spin more elk hair, muddler style to make the head.

Trim leaving Mousie ears.
