Booby Streamer
This was designed in 2 versions… a popper version with Marc Petitjean’s magic popper head which was posted earlier and this is a more versatile version which can be fish with floating, sink tip and sinking lines.
You can either present it like an injured baitfish with floating line, strip and let it stop… or if you are fishing with sink tip or sinking line… you can adjust the dept with the length of your leader.
Material List :
Hook – Ahrex TP650 26 Bent Streamer #1 or smaller 
Tail – Streamer saddle, UV shiner
Body – Palmer Chenille, Extra fine UV Dubbing, Predator Fibers, Ice Dubbing
Head – 9mm Semperfli Booby tube foam, Deer Creek Mega Lazer Dub
Eye – Deer Creek Eclipse 8mm
Thread – Nano Silk 12/0 white
Others – epoxy, Deer Creek Fine Flex UV resin
Picture step by step tying tutorial :
Prepare thread base … here I’m using a #1 hook.. you can tie with smaller hook size
Cut about 1.25cm ( half of the tube foam ) of the 9mm Booby Tube foam, make a hole a the middle
Put in the foam just right after the bent, tie it down.. drop a small drop of superglue if you wish
Tie in the streamer saddle ( I normally keep it 2x of the hook shank )
Tie in some UV shiner, them wind in about 3 wind of pearl Palmer chenille
Mix the predator fiver with some extra fine UV dubbing..Tie in your prefer colour of Predator fibers
Fold the fiber back, tie down and wind in some Ice dubbing… comb the dubbing out
Now tie in anothe batch of fibers just after the foam
Fold the fibers back and figure 8 and secure the fiber on the foam
Tie in some Mega Lazer Dub, fold the fiber back, comb and arrange the fiber and fixed the shape with some Deer Creek Fine flex UV resin
Drop some epoxy on the foam to glue your eye… I only use epoxy to stick all my fly’s eye
Done
Always tank test your fly, if it doesn’t float… either your hook is too heavy or you are not using a high floating close cell foam.
Cheers and Happy Tying!!!
