I just typed "PM Wiggler Recipe" into Google and came up with this one.
Not sure if you have tried this Hex pattern, but this is by far my favorite one. It's called the Rag Hex. Just something you may want to try too.

I tie mine like this:
Mustad size 6 (#3906)
Marabou (Blonde or ginger)
6/0 thread to match
Medium Chennille (blonde/ginger-match the marabou)
small mono eyes -( black)
*Tie in marabou near back of shank, fold front back, then tie in medium chennille. wrap chennille to front and then tie in black mono eyes. Pull folded back marabou over top (including eyes), then wrap & whip finish, glue. NOte: you kind of want a bushey tail for movement.
I hope this helps. It is kind of like the PM wiggler but it is the quick version. *cheap/simple/effective*

Bench . . . I don't see anything to simulate legs. Could you comment on that, and post a photo?
