It must some 8 weeks or so since I got a few sculpin helmets with an order from the states... well I finally got the vice out and tied something!

Head: Sculpin helmet small brown Hook: Kamasan B830 #6 Thread: 3/0 Brown Collar: Grizzly Marabou Back/Tail: Dark brown rabbit strip Undertail: Orange Rabbit Body: UV ice dub shrimp pink

The side view... you can't really see the body, just dubbed with the grizzle marabou covering...

Same company make these as the fish skulls... I love to tie, I don't always get around to fishing them as much I plan to try and fish streamers a bit more next season... especially around the weed beds... These have a fair bit of weight so plan on chucking them into some deep holes at some stage.
