This is my second season fishing snoeshoe rabbit feet downunder and
I've been having a great time using them on the local fish (in flies of
course .

The classic Usual has been great and although originally designed as a
caddis fly, in the right size they pass for a spinner. The orange
thread showing through whe the fly is wet. The thing that
has surprised most is the visibility of the wing during the evening
rise and on into dusk ... 's been good there as well.

We have a lot of green midge in our rivers. The Canon's Beard is a
midge imitation with the body
of a Greenwell's Glory (hence the name) and a wing of snoeshoe rabbit
foot. Tied in 18-20, it takes the smooth water sippers pretty well
down here.
(Body: primrose thread treated with beeswax, gold wire rib
Wing: more of a blob than a wing, short, dense, fan. Tied in the
manner Tom Littleton describes here in a)
