Neck: black Foxtail underhair
Cone: Eumertube

Another chapter in me doing things I really have no idea on how to do: I bought some foxtail and templedog pieces a little while ago to tie up some tube flies (and for large streamers), and I finally sat down and created my first ones. It took a couple of tries to get a feel for this way of creating flies, but I’m warming up to the idea. I will be testing these in saltwater first to see how they actually behave (have never fished with tube before).
