Wally, Almost the recipe but the Dog Nobblers I have seen ( never used) have a lead split shot for the head chenille body and marabou tail. Theplit shot is usually a BB size and is painted with eyes. I beleive the idea for the pattern came from US crappie jig flies. But they do work very well indeed. KP
