Tieback Minnow Hook: TMC 9394 size 6 Thread: Black Uni 8/0 Body: Flexi-cord light W/BLK.LINE 1/8 Tail: Olive mallard flank Back: Olive mallard flank Head: painted eyes, black over yellow
Re: Tieback Minnow Hey Rick, I started tying this pattern on 200R's size 6, and use stick-on eyes then coat the whole works in epoxy. I also leave a few strands of the braid sticking out under the mallard in the tail. As well as olive mallard I use amber, gray and blue mallard. Lastly, to simulate gill flash, I put a few turns of red thread behind the head. I will try to post some pics as I have an order to do for the local shop.
