Here is SBS for wool head pike streamer I’ve posted earlier. It is kind of new type of pike streamers for me. It should be hard to cast, but also will make lots of noise underwater because of bulky wool head. For these streamers I’ve used short-shank-big-gap carp hooks (they are sharp as hell… poor fingers :] Used the same:

“sculpin wool” I bought in sewing craft store. This wool is used to make these or these. Costed me a buck for one big pack of wool.

This wool comes in variety of colors and could be used to tie any color combinations. This one is “fire tiger” (maybe I should paint stripes with permanent marker).

Materials used:

  • carp hook size 3/0
  • some lead for weight
  • synthetic fur in yellow, green and chartreuse
  • couple feathers of marabou
  • yellow wool and doll eyes

make a thick mono loop. It should prevent tail from tangling around the hook:

tie in green marabou (actually it’s a turkey)

wrap it

do the same with yellow “marabou”

nice heh?

tie in big bunch of wool (actually I will make tutorial how to make wool heads)

bend it back and put a drop of superglue

repeat as many times as you need to cover hook shank, again drop of superglue, clip off thread

form a nice flat head (round, slim, wide – as you wish)

glue in doll eyes

and that’s it :]
