And as usual, let us know in the comments below how this pattern works for you. We love the color combo!

I began tying these last fall. The midnight fire dubbing is the bomb, when combined with the hot bead in a balanced approach. I tie these with and without the tail and with and without the collar. Without the tail it actually fishes really well in the dead of winter in rivers. With the tail it fishes well in spring and fall, and it is killer in stillwater!

Your UA-cam Channel is without a doubt one of the top 3. Davie McPhail, Netknots (because they have all the old Shane Stalcup videos), and yours. Keep up the fine work Cheech.

This is a great color combo, I'm making a few for my upcoming trip. I'll let you know how they work!

with a midge or a san juan worm underneath the leech absolutely kills it in south idaho still water especially with no indicator on a float tube or with indicator in the wind

This pattern was responsible for 16 Bass in 3 hours fished under an indicator and bounced along the bottom. Other colors were refused.
