My first attempt tying fishnuts (Darren's) Prawn Fly





Tied this prawn pattern up from a video posted by Darren aka fishnuts on one of the forums I'm on and reckon it came out not too bad. I substituted vinyl table cloth for the carapace with the soft packaging around  Mustad ultrapoint series of hooks packs. As I didn't have Liquid Fusion for the carapace coating I just went over the wraps with hard as nails. I think a little too much dubbing was used and maybe get the holo fusion "mouth parts" a bit more shaped - bottom half shorter say. The next ties will be a bit smaller ( this is size #2 ) and tied more for bream in mind -light olive/pearl combos in #4-8. PAT.
