New design by Alan Shepherd - Popeye Emerging Dun
Here is a lovely design trick, developed by Alan Shepherd, a few years ago to imitate an ant.
The body was made of 50lb mono fixed across the hook shank with hackle wound around the base of the body for legs/float.
He has now incorporated the eyes/ant body
as a parachute post in my reversed parachute to be tested in Aus and NZ in the coming months.
Very neat application.

Size-
anything from a 6 to a 32, same as my reversed parachute, John;
unless you want a baitfish imitation, then the sky's the limit
:shock:
cheers,
Roy
