This is a super easy and quick small streamer to tie for filling your box. I would fish this a lot on the San Juan River during the time they would stock because those big brown trout would come out from the depths and start chasing these small fingerling. They are small enough to nymph, and move well enough to look like a fish fighting the current. You can also fish them like a small streamer and strip them in as well. They can be tied in any color you want, since rabbit strips come in many different colors. You can add flash as well. Add more or less weight, I mean these are very versatile and easy to tie.
