This is a prawn tube that I tied for steelhead. It is basically a sexed up Popsicle, with a little bit of the tried and true materials thrown in the mix. Easy to tie cant wait to get it wet.  |

Here is another variation of a purple prawn that I thought I would share.. although the tail looks funky it lays down right when its not in the vise.  |
