[McSneek]

Do you spin them into a dubbing loop?

Heavy gauge wire for harness? I thought this was a dry fly kitten recipe?

We all know cats don't float....when they are put in a bag full of rocks.

So you're suggesting that they should be fished as nymphs?

Thing-a-ma-Bobbers can be used to adjust depth and angle-of-attack. Pink or white.

Honestly that sounds more like bait than a fly. You're not one of those type of people, are you?

Can you post a photo?

Pro what about the Cheetos dust? How is that applied? It must be important. Its in the name.

Mmmmm cat, "the other white meat".

 

[pro4mance]

Cheeto dust blended with Lab and Cat dubbing. Adds a little flavor and color, McSneek if I ever learn to post a photo I will. Finished fly may end up looking like FarmerDave laughing at a FART joke while trying to tie a knot

 

[phiendWMD]

What tippet do you recommend for an 18lb fly? Is the Cheetos dust FFO legal?

I don't think the color matters so much. Everyone knows it's shape or contrast that attracts the fish. This might do the trick:
