The Sweeny Todd is a fly that I would never leave home without when out chasing sea trout.



Thanks for looking.

Very cool!!! |\

Nice tying and nice proportions too.

Have you ever tried dropping some jc in front of the grizzle spikes? bet it would look awesome.

Good job,

TT.

Hi TT, yes I have added jc to this pattern before and you are correct it does look awesome. But It doesn't need it, the long grizzle cheeks are enough I think.

These are Maxxumus salmon hooks size 6. That I have had for a long time and work really well on this style of fly. Nice light hook but also has the strength as well.

Glad you like the fly
