This one measures 5 inches long. I purchased two skeins of Northland Lofty Chenille (Bulky #6) recently that looked good for baitfish patterns. This particular color is called "Maplewood".

Used sage-colored craft fur for the tail. The hook is an Eagle Claw 249WA -1/0. It rides with its hook point downward and has a wire weedguard to resist snagging.

Thanks CH. :)

Tied a couple more flukes tonight with two other "new-to-me" chenille yarns. Used another Northland Lofty in a "honey" color and a Bernat yarn called Fab Faux ("sable" color) that is quite fuzzy.
