Jim’s Fly Tying Tip

Say what you want about worm imitations.  High, dirty water means the fish will be eating worms.  I personally don’t care for the “squirmy” material.  It doesn’t stay in place on the hook, and degrades in my box.  This stuff moves like a squirmy but has the durability of chenille.  It’s my new go-to and should be yours as well.
