ClamEggo

By clarkman.

Description

Basically the same as the "Bundle O' Worms".....but with an egg

Tying Process

Probably don't really need an SBS for this one. note: I also use a size small (or XS) mop chenille for the tail to better imitate a clam, which is a primary food source for many of our local fish. Also, saddle hackle works great for the hackle too. Also also, for a true clam oriented pattern, you'd want just a single leg off the back but I like to go against the grain.
