Streamer: The Alpha Male

[Jason R.]

Pretty sure I shouldn't even post this after Wise's video...

But i've been tying streamers lately and this is my favorite so far. I realize it is just a double deciever with marabou interspersed throughout but I think it will fish. The head is a bit different and the buck tail is all "hollow tied" as opposed to "reverse tied." The idea it that the buck tail keeps the marabou from slimming down in the water. I have not had the chance to test these on any browns but I have a good feeling about them.

Hooks: size 6 8089 in rear, size 2 8089 in front

Thread: Black

Tail: 4 schlappen feathers

Body: Hollow tied bucktail and palmered marabou

Flash: Flashabou

Eyes: 10mm MFC "Jurassic Eyes"

Head: Epoxy (CCG would be better)

Connection: Coated wire and glass beads.

Don't be crazy. That's a good looking fly. Please don't let the Crazy weird guy's videos keep you or anyone else from posting. I'm positive that he would agree.

Thanks Brian- I was kidding about not posting- I honestly don't care at all as I have no shame. I really like your videos though.
