What fur Did you use for the zonker strip? The guard hairs are really cool!

Thanks Wayne. It’s an unusual design, but looks like it would fish with lots of life (dipping with every pause). Worth adding a few to my fly box.

Wayne, after watching the video and looking at your version, I prefer yours, egg sucking leech or not. Brilliant version.

Thank you Ron!That is high praise indeed.
I am going to swing this with one or two soft hackles. I am curious to see if it will bring a few larger fish to the net.
