Notes
A simple imitation of the three spine stickleback, a baitfish that cutthroat feed on heavily. The body is silver mylar tubing with a polar bear under wing and two blue dun hackle tips over it, finished with epoxied eyes. Terry Bragg suggests it as a cutthroat staple, especially before salmon fry begin to emerge.
