you've got some killer flies there Pete,love the troutflies you've got pretty much every stream or lake scenario covered there (the brown muddler and the humpy look awesome),i like that popper too is that mesh material you use good to work with? and do fish eventually puncture the epoxy waterproofing?,i'm curious as i'm keen to make some of those myself

puglee62,
I tied a royal woulf down to a twenty 22 size hook, the popper is easy to tie and it is coated with silicon so it has some give, but a thin coat of epoxy would work as well. They hold up pretty well just make sure the cup face is well coated as it takes most of the punishment. I havent got the pattern here with me when I resume fly tying in a couple of weeks I will find the pattern.
