Sequins

I'm quite chuffed with attraction offered from the shell sequins  (fish gills ) so thought of the idea  of a oval gill plate ,  150 mixed colours for about £1 off ebay, these ones are 19mm long . As soon as they arrived i wanted to try a roach pattern , so made a kanekanlon baitfish with the appropriate colours basically white, silver blue a wee dash of right orange at the throat bit holoflash  a and a red epoxy eye on a holosilver "gill plate". Cant wait too give it a swim!

    Hi Dustin the hook is a Mustad aberdeen size 4/0, nothing fancy but a good sharp hook.
