Here's a brief rundown on how to use one of the hottest new fly tying materials for '06...Reel Eggs. Whether you choose the single egg or the cluster there is no egg that is easier to tie with or more realistic in look and feel (something like a gummy bear). Plus they come in a ton of colors to match your local needs.
Step 1 Snip one egg off the string of 12 and trim the yarn core back to the surface of the egg.
Step 2 Insert the point of the hook through the yarn center, then add a drop of zap-a-gap behind the hook eye. Now simply slide the egg forward to it's final position and let dry.
Step 3 You can get real creative with this product and dub a small amount of Egg Veil ahead of it to represent a real 'fresh' egg, or tie behind the egg for amazing egg sucking leech patterns.
Great information on a quick and easy fly.
