April 2019 Meeting Followup

More about the meeting

John gave us a very informative presentation and he made it look real easy.  The hook used was a #74172 in a size #6 for the Sofa Pillow.  It is a 3X long and 2X heavy.  These can be found at aliexpress.com at a very good sale price right now.  This hook is also a Tiemco #5263 and an alternative choice is the Tiemco #5262 which is the same except it is a 2X long instead of a 3X.  The Stimulator was tied on a #8 hook.  The Stimulator is the one with the grizzly front hackle.  John also said that he prefers to tie the Sofa Pillow with a badger front hackle.
