| Wiggling Minnow |
Tying this for a friend, who likes to hunt our ‘Sebarau’ ( Hampala )… he wanted a minnow pattern which wiggle like Articulate Bait-fish but much lighter and smaller..
So I combine my leech pattern with another minnow pattern…
taking the advantage of soft movement of marabou in the water, as additional wiggling element… here is the wiggling minnow which is about 3″ ( 7cm ) in length and slender shape… a close imitation to the Snakehead fry, the favorite color and pattern for hunting big Sebarau.
Material List
Hook – Gamakatsu B10S size 1 or 2
Tail – Yellow dye Marabou
Body – Palmer Chenille fro Wapsi
Marker, epoxy eye, 62lbs hard wire and Gel Glue
Diamond UV Resin
Step by step tying instruction
