Found this on a Russian site. Haven't tied a Rogue style body in a while; if you're not up for the Carnage method, it makes an acceptable product.


hook – Dai Riki 135 #8
thread/rib - UTC 140 black
abdomen - 1mm foam yellow
wing case/head - 1mm foam black
thorax - dubbing yellow
wing - Congo Hair white
legs - deer hair dyed dark dun

fold a piece of foam in half; cut at an angle, with the folded end at the narrowest point

insert needle into the folded end; mount needle in the vise, start thread

fold foam forward, take 2 soft loops, pull firmly and take a few more wraps

pull foam back, split the uprights with the thread and take a few wraps forward

pull foam forward an repeat the process

that should do it; brush the wraps with Sally and slide the body off the needle

mash barb, start thread

hold the body against the hook to determine placement, brush shank with Super Glue and tie in; trim

tie in wingcase

dub thread/dub shaggy thorax

tie in CH

create thread loop; wax

clean, stack, measure (approx 2x gap) a clump of deer hair; insert in clip, trim butts, insert in loop, spin

stroke fibers back, wrap, tie off/trim

pull wingcase forward, tie down, fold to create head, tie off, trim, whip finish, SHHAN

trim wing, hop on the nearest MI-8 and head for the tundra

Regards,
Scott

Or tie it in blue & head for the nearest bass water . . . clever technique & I'll try that! Thanks, Scott! I've seen Largemouth going crazy chasing Dragons before.

Slick technique with the needle as a temporary spline. Definitely something I want to play with. Thanks!

White Miller (Carnage variation)

A bit more involved than stuff like CDC & Elk or X-Caddis but it'll float until it's chewed up or broken off. If I get to Yellowstone and if I come in thru the west side, I'll give it a shot.

hook – Dai Riki 135 #14
thread - Danville 6/0 pale yellow
core - 7lb mono
abdomen/wing case/head - 1mm foam cream
hackle - partridge
wing - Congo Hair off white

Pink Pookie (Carnage variation)

Be comfortable in your manhood; pink is a killer color. Considered adding rubber legs but thought that might be a bit too garish.

hook – Dai Riki 135 #8
thread/rib - UTC 140 hot pink
core - 30lb mono
underbody - moose mane
abdomen - 2mm foam pink
wing case/head - 1mm foam grey
wing - Congo Hair grey
legs - deer hair dyed dark dun
indicator - 1mm foam orange

Nice work Scott. I bet a Green Drake would look pretty good to.

Steve,

Pulling the foam over the top would cause problems with an upright wing like this one

But it could work for a spinner. I’ll give it a try.
