Clouser Muddler — Clouser with a muddler head

By Kfish.

Description

Fish on a sinking line for searun cutts or resident coho in the Sound.

Tying Process

Start with the dumbbell eye on the hook, then add mallard flank to the rear. Put on pearl or silver holographic ice dub for body then follow with some orange dub for throat. Leave plenty of room for the wing which consists of more mallard, silver angel hair and olive artic fox. Then the fun part, take a clump of olive spinning deer hair to make the muddler head, trim away to form that bullet shaped head.
