So I am only entering my second year fly fishing, maybe six months tying flies. I spent this week trying my hand at intruders. I learned of dubbing loops and composite loops day over day. So here is the final one for the week.

Hareline Ice Dub (purple) for a dubbing ball
Composite Loop:
UV2 Black and Blue dubbing blended, ontop of that I laid down Gold kreelex, purple flashabou and a few strands of holo tinsel
I made a few wraps of grey ostrich and a touch of pink marabu at the head, grizzle hackle on the sides and a FL orange thread rapped head where i used resin to stick the eyes.

Still learning but compared to intruder 1, this is a good step in a fun direction. to check out the other three that I tied up, just scroll down a bit after clicking the link and they will be there.
