[#0000ff]Here is a pic of the 1/4 inch size foam cylinders . I also use the larger 3/8" size. Regular fly hooks with a 3x long shank work well but you can use almost any hook depending on the size and style lure/fly you want to make. I use a sharp blade to slit the cylinder lengthwise...about halfway through. Then I epoxy in the hook. Use a Dremel sander to round off the ends.
Glad you like the moth. I had fun trying to come up with the right feathers for the wings.
They are a bit heavy to cast with a light rod and they come down with a splat. But the cutts seem to like it that way.
