Highlighter Any – Richard Strolis

Richard says, “Here is a rather productive extended foam body ant pattern that can be tied with or without a wing. I tied this version with the wing so you could see exactly how I add that really simple extra step. This is a good imitation for ants in that size 18-14, and you can tailor them to any color you may encounter by simply changing the foam, thread, legs and dubbing. What you may encounter is even when the fish are on the small ants, this guy although dainty is a bit larger than some of the smaller ants but will still get the job done. Have fun tying this one.”
