I say it's a really cool fly.I wonder how that moves through the water. Well done !!!

Thank you for your comments Guys.

Plan to field test this one next spring. Will likely hop, stop-n-go, and pulse with my rod tip on retrieve. Many tie leeches and worms with this material, so may drag it slowly on occasion too.

That is like a worm with appendages!!!! I don't know what it will look like in the water but Ibet it looks like something alive, fantastic!!!

Thank you Smalljaw and Hawnjigs.

Hawn,

You know? I think you might be on to something here, especially if this material was tied onto one of Toadfrog's dragon-like jig heads. :icon14:

Well, if you're gonna crawl bottom with that jig you can call it a Draggin' Dancer.
