Super simple sow bug, love it. Bet this would work with a dubbing loop as well.

I tie and fish a lot of sow bugs I will be giving this a try, simple pattern thanks.

[@davidtaylor7014]

I like this one. Thanks

Cheech: when would you use this versus other sowbug patterns? does it have any advantages?

[@FlyFishFood]

Martin Hodell they all work... sometimes it’s just good to switch it up

[@bnsdds]

Any input on the high tack vs. the low tack?

[@FlyFishFood]

Sorry about the late response on this... The low tack is good, but it's not sticky enough to do the touch dub technique.

What bobbin are you using? Do you sell it?
