I've been working on a small castable mouse pattern for a trip to northern Michigan and some bass fishing on my 3 weight here in Texas. This is what I came up with so far.Image
It's a chenille tail, deer hair under body and foam top. It casts well on my 3 weight. I just have to see if the fish approve now.

I love those ears! More of a MICKEY finn!
I've been fishing deer hair mice for big brookies and bass, and they cast very poorly in realistic sizes on a 3 wt. I think you may be on to something here!
Out of curiosity, what size hook is that?

Would you consider posting an aerial view (i.e. view from straight above?)

Fishing in the Killeen area. I can post an Arial view later. I'm on my way to do some population control on some hogs.
