nice hopper and good vid. did you glue the foam together or did you buy it that way

also about how wide did you cut it thx...

[drbulltrout]

@heath271 i used store bought foam on this pattern but you could just as easily glue some craft foam together yourself...the width of the foam should be about the width of the gap of the hook...hope this helps...thanks for watching...

nice vid! 5/5 where did u get those legs?

[drbulltrout]

@michaelsw0rd thanks for the compliments...they are called TNT hopper legs and i picked them up through Wapsi...hope this helps...

Great fly and you are obviously a talented tyer. Is the yarn indicator even necessary? Seems like you could see that fly from orbit without it.

[drbulltrout]

@8grendel8 thanks for the compliments bud...much appreciated...you don't need to put the yarn on but it's just a habit from when i tie in all black for my cricket imitations...

[tonkaturtle]

but i want to add, i really like that you showed the materials that you used in the beginning. :D keep up the videos

[tonkaturtle]

looks like a real bitch to cast with all that foam

[drbulltrout]

it's actually easy to cast being that it doesn't hold any water...the bullet head also helps to punch it into the wind...thanks for the compliments bud...
