Morlock's Carp Spoon

I mentioned it the other day when I posted the step by step for the Martinez Frankenstein Sculpin, but I also was able to photograph Kevin Morlock of Indigo Guide Service tying a new pattern that he developed this summer while on Beaver Island that he's dubbed the Morlock's Carp Spoon.

This is a relatively easy tie that moves really cool once it's in the water and can be tied in a variety of sizes with different colored dubbed heads and lead eyes.

MORLOCK'S CARP SPOON MATERIALS:

Hook- Daiichi 2152 - Size 1

Eyes- Large Lead Eyes In Red

Wing- Yellow Mallard Flank - 3 Matching Feathers Stacked

Accent- A Pinch of Pink Marabou

Flash- Copper Flashabou

Hackle- Olive Schlappen - Trim Bottom Flat

Head- Black Ice Dub
