Don Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Zonker Minnow I was looking for something kind of different. This one is not my creation. I found it on virtualflybox.com. It was submitted by Bill Morrison from Worland Wyoming. Here is my version: Eyes: Bead Chain Head: Black Thread: Black UTC 140 and red UTC 140 Hackle: Grizzly Olive Hook: Tiemco TMC5263 size 6 Lead: .015 wire Body: 1/8 in. pearl mylar tubing Wing: Brown Olive pine squirrel 1. Wrap length of shank with lead. 2. Build black thread dam to secure lead and apply light coat of favorite cement. 3. Cut mylar tube slightly longer than lead body and slide over eye of hook. 4. Tie butt or tag of tubing to hook with a few wraps of red thread directly above the point of hook. 5. Separate pine squirrel strip and tie to butt where red thread secures tubing. tail is approx. length of hook shank. 6. Whip finish butt end slightly in front of squirrel strip, rotate fly upside down and apply small amount of cement to thread. 7. Rotate fly back upright and secure front end of tubing with black thread and wrap thread to eye. 8. Tie on bead chain eyes directly behind eye. 9. Tie down front of squirrel strip behind eye leaving a little room for hackle. 10. Tie in hackle at front of squirrel and wrap 2 to 3 times to the chain eyes. 11. Tie off and finish behind the eyes. Don Don May I caught you a delicious bass.
