Wow that thread looks thick...

[@steveyates1136]

That's a good looking beetle imitation. I like using the tag from the thread to divided the back. I noticed you wrap some of your materials in the opposite direction of your thread wraps. Like the red yarn and the hackle. I'm not sure why? Thanks.

[@TJHLURES]

thanks. it doesn't really matter in this case, which direction the materials are wrapped, i guess i was just wrapping that way back then. but as an example, if you wrap dubbing and palmer a hackle same direction, the hackle stem pushes into the dubbing and is protected, if you cant be bothered to counter wrap your thread / rib over the hackle. tight lines

Really nice! 👌😃. How’s this pattern work for you while fishing? I want to try it.

[@TJHLURES]

thanks. some graylings, lots of small pike seemed to like it (under 1kg..) and few perch.
