fishnuts 55 Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Been messing around with some Clear Cure Goo and making some prawns to toss around when I build my new 2wt flyrod. They are tied on size 8 Mustad S71ss s hooks and weigh nearly nothing. Should be able to knock some bream and whiting over with these I hope :silly:.Cheers Darren Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The flies carry the colour well. Now all we have to do is wait for the bream to get rid of the Lockjaw and I can go have some fun.Cheers Darren Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rangfish 1 Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 They look very realistic, are they tied the same way as the other prawn flies? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That is replaced with a coating of Clear Cure Goo which is a UV REACTING EPOXY. You can also use a 2 part 5 minute epoxy but you will have to rotate it until the epoxy sets. Hope this helps.Cheers Darren Quote Link to post Share on other sites
