I use a gill getter type patter
n with the body made from chenille pipe stems with a shellbakc made from hiar of fiber and rubber legs. For the very shallow ponds I fish the wire in the chenille pipe cleaner is just perfect, The wire will rsut after a bit but I usually end up leaving the fly in a cypress tree long before that happens.

OK, one more question LOL.... As we all know, Bluegills are crazy about anything with rubber legs.... and in the Spring, things like rubber legged foam spiders etc are deadly, or when the fish are feeding on the top of the water.. But right now, here, they are NOT feeding on the top.. So, To make a sinking foam bug like this, should I just use a few wraps of lead wire??? Or is there a better way???? I thought about using a chenille body instead of foam, that might soak up water and sink, or, isn't there some types of foams, (like man made sponges) that will sink????
