| The use of synthetics such as Antron or Zelon is not limited to spinner patterns. Used in place of traditional winging materials on standard dries, they can spice up a pattern, making it especially effective during periods of sunlight. Use the color of synthetic that matches the natural or traditional material for the pattern. You can use Antron for the wings on other dries by simply using the appropriate color, matching either the natural, or the classic pattern. |
Notes: Tie a section of Antron (half a strand for #18, 2/3 of a strand for #16, a full strand for #14) in the wing area as you would mallard flank, extending over the eye of the hook. Prop up with thread wraps, then divide. |
