Agreed - looks like a rabbit strip in the big pic.
Great find and cool fly, Ed. I love streamers like that for smallies. You
familiar w/ the Madonna Muddler? I think also called Schmidts Rabbit
Muddler, or something like that. Similar and something you should check
out, too.

Yes, looks like a rabbit strip dahlberg diver with some fancy feathers.
Use is a lot for saltwater fishing.
We tie a mono loop (10# hard mono) on the hook shank first as an antifouling
device and support for the tail. This is for
Hooks at least size #1.

It almost looks like they added a rabbit zonker to the tail of the one
pictured above the recipe. It's a little longer tail.
The group picture of them looks like they have just a marabou and flash
tail.
