Hey TD and other lure makers...

[TubeDude]

[#0000FF]Good lookin stuff. I used to use some of that for salt water flies when I fished the Sea of Cortez a lot. It was great for the toothy denizens there. But when it came to making flies for the abundant needlefish, I used white Velcro bodies. It tangled in their teeth long enough to get a couple of jumps and a run or two before they came off. Good 'nuff. You really din't want them up close and pers'nal in your tube anyway.

I have been using all kinds of craft store stuff for years...including craft cord and plastic canvas. Lots of good fishy colors and very durable. See pics.
