Yea those are gonna drift real nice under your indicator.
Yum! Bunny giblets in gravy.
You're going to need a very large bobber for those giblets.
Mark, I noticed you don't tie the zonker to the stinger hook. Is there a reason? Thanks.

I do it both ways. It all depends on what I use to attach stinger to shank, wire, power pro or dacron. Wire I don’t lash down hide to hook, this will allow more movement of hide. Power pro or Dacron I will lash down do to it being more supple and will allow hide to move more freely in different currents. I prefer pine squirrel strips over rabbit for sculpins, rabbit strips can be to big for my liking and most the time I will trim down the rabbit strips. If you don’t lash down hide to hook just make sure the hide is cut short of the bend of hook so you don’t get it fouled up and it can swim freely.

Great advice. Thanks, Mark. I only started tying these articulated flies recently and have screwed up all of them in one way or another: too short, too long, too skinny, etc. And I'm using those Bob Popovich tungsten heads, so they ain't cheap.
