If you are looking at my shiner pattern, the one with dolleyes.here is the pattern.

sz 2 streamer hook lightly weighted
short marabou tail
foam bodycut to shape tied on top of hook
ex-large mylar tubing tied at front of hook and pushed back, turning the tubing insideout over the foam body tie in at hook bend (be carefull not to unravel the tubing)
once tied down unravel the last bit of tubing for the tail
use markers to paint body to match minnow
glue dolleyes
dip in softex only to bend of hook leave marabou and mylar tail clean of glue

works good in gold, silver, pearl, black, blue, green , and copper tubing.
I havent seen any other colors but paint them to match what the fish are eating
have caught walleye, bass, trout, and pike on this one and crappie on a smaller version.
