I stumbled across this pattern last year the night before going bass fishing. It was the blind pig finding an acorn scenario. I though, bass love worms, (I think). Rabbit fur might move like a worm in the water. Hence this fly was born. The one on the bottom is the color I used last year with good results the couple times I went out. I have been combining some other colors. I am as far from a bass expert as you can get...any suggestions on this pattern?
The fly is aprox. 3 1/2" long, tied on a #2 tiemco bass hook. I made a weed guard with a very light guage wire I got at the hobbie store. This fly is incredibly weedless yet still sticks the fish really good. I took it to the expo ponds last year and pulled it thru the thickest weed beds I could find. With the cone head and the weed guard, it came thru the weeds like a greased pig.
