Juicy looking little morsels. I'm impressed with how slender you got the bodies to be. You must have been keeping strong tension on the body materials when tying it in. Very well done.

Great fly!!!

I have been a bloodworm fan for decades since I pulled a trout out of an Eastern Oregon lake at over 7,000 feet, and found it so full of bloodworm larva that I was surprised it would take the fly i had on.:shock:

What are the hooks?

I am a blood worm fan myself!!!

This is literally one of the easiest patterns there is.

The only thing easier would be to just use the red hook. Which is a thing now.
