Nice tie, mate!

Love this pattern. Like the pink color in it.

:thumbup:

Like the name of this fly.

It's the acronym of my highschool.

Biglerville High School.

ANYWAYS. very nice fly.

:thumbsup:

Tell me, I'm not too good with speys, let alone saltwater flies.

Does this resemble a shrimp I assume?

Nice tie!

We have some good pickerel fishing around where I'm from. Those little devils would devour this pattern.

Thanks for the inspiration! Now I'll be busy the next few nights after school!

:thumbup:

Very Nice.

The name fits very well.

Good luck with it!

Nice catch!

I've always wanted to fish for gar. But with me being from Pennsylvania. We have VERY FEW. Back in the day, a few of the alligator gar were still around the Ohio, Monongahela, and Allegheny rivers. Now, if any they haven't been seen or caught in a while. But, to our luck, we have a smaller population of spotted gar in the Presque Isle Bay area of Lake Erie. So one of these days, I'm heading up there to try my hand at some pike and gar. Glad your birthday came out nice!

Anyways, Nice catches and for next time, Good luck! :jumpy:

Looking great.

I especially like the one with the Chartreuse/ Lime Green color. I've always had luck with that color on pike.

But, they all look deadly. I'd be scared if I was a pike.

Good luck to ya! :thumbsup:

Whipped this up late last night. Thought I'd post some pics and such. With school starting here, I don't know how much I'll be posting things, but when I do, I'll make it worth while.

So enjoy....

A new addition to the fly pattern database has been submitted by tbhflytyer415:

Chartreuse and Fuschia Leech

I'd say, Bass Pro, and Cabela's.

#1. they are both very well known.

#2. they have very kind and experienced staff.

#3. they have a good variety of materials, flies, and gear.

I still honestly like the family owned fly shops.

Like TCO Fly Shop in Carlise and State College, Pennsylvania.

The small shops is where friends are made and stories can be told over and over again. Keen knowledge about the areas fishing is also gained on a broader perspective at the smaller shops.

But, I wouldn't doubt Bass Pro or Cabela's in the long run.

:thumbup:

This fly is a killer! :gunsmilie:

Is it legal?? lol

great tie, mate!

I love the rubber legs. Gives it the creepy crawly kind of look.

Looks great.

love the rubber legs. I have noticed the trigger strikes a lot more than ones without.

Anyways, Great tie, mate! :ban:

Talk about the utility player on the baseball team.

this things got it all!

great tie, very nice job, mate! :ban:

Ah! nothing like some good smallmouth fishing.

Great catches, mate!

:thumbup:

Very Nice!

I love sparkly egg patterns for some of those steelies.

I like a pattern I tie. I don't know if you'll be interested. I'll post the pattern soon.

It's a egg pattern with egg yarn veiled over it. It very well resembles a single egg encased in sperm. So it's a very natural looking pattern. It proves to be deadly. Just drift down the bottom of a deep run, and bounce on the rocks. When you see steelhead tailing, I've noticed they are feeding on nymphs and eggs. So thats your sign!

Keep that reel screaming!

Great tie!

Steelies love black stones!

Goin up to the Salmon River at the end of the month for the remaining Skamania runners.

Thanks for the inspiration. Gotta tie some up now.

:flex:

For smallies on the Conewago, Susquehanna, Yellow Breeches, or the Juniata, I'd say the Black or Olive Wooly Bugger. It's nothing special, but it gets the job done! Sometimes making more of a "Flash-a-bugger" pattern works well too!

Also. for Largemouth, I like using Olive/ Black/ Purple/ or Chartreuse Rabbit Strip Leeches.

Two simple flies that get the job done.

Although, I fish a lot of bucktail patterns too.

I tie lots of things. But, what I've listed are my favs.

Fish hard and Tight lines!

your skills are great with those tasty looking bombers!

great ties!

good luck this season!

:thumbup:

great topic!

this will hopefully prove to be very useful. thanks, mate!

:clapping:

gret tie, mate!

looks deadly! :gunsmilie:

very very nice.

i can see the resemblance very well.

:thumbup:

great tie.

did you use heavy mono or wire for the rear trailing hook???

Thanks everyone for the tips and help.

Good luck to ya'll this season

keep the reels screaming and lines tight, mates!

:thumbup:

Ah. can't beat a good fight with a bass. Smallmouths #1 and then Largemouths #2.

Hats off to the panfish though.

heck of a fight for such a small fish.

Fish hard!
