Chuck,
I wish I could have made SB this year to do the
rope-dub clinic. I'm also glad that project is
finished. Now I can relax a little.

These are indestructible.. Specially if you twist
a copper wire in WITH the chenille, thread and
hackle feather.. Wrap that all in and it will catch
100 fish, Chuck

Lefty Kreh calls it the "Indestructable Wooly
Bugger". Instead of wrapping your chenille and then
your hackle, you tie both in at the back of the
hook, and twist them together into a rope. Maybe
even with a dubbing loop or the long tag end of your
tying thread added for extra strength. If you're
using different colored chenille and hackle you
could blend the colors.

You got it! Although a sixe 24 circle hook
might be pleaseing.
Now I know how to layer the tri-colors but is
there a way you can get them to inter-mingle? I saw
something somewhere that looked like two colors were
twisted while being tied. Any idea.

A 3/4 ton is usually adequate.
Tie a 2500 series OTB Humvee WB on a circle
hook.

I know nothing about NASCAR except it
has fast cars running in a circle
BUT I will do some research and tie
something ( Woolly Bugger). Now if you were talking
HUMVEES, Jeeps, duece and a halfs , APCs, all
military color(olive, tan and brown), then it would
be a tri-color WB. Any cars and drivers like this?
