niveker 0 Report post Posted February 22 Thanks Gadabout. Norm has a nice one tied on his site, I loosely copied his. Might as well stay with streamers, surprised this one was not on the list, unless I missed it. Next Challenge: Grizzly King, any variation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heff2 0 Report post Posted February 23 Norm, Loved the Golden Darter and Grizzly King Niveker, Great shiner, I tied up a few but also got lazy and used peel and stick eyes in place of painting them. I'll take the James Woods Bucktail Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
niveker 0 Report post Posted February 23 Thanks Heff2 - I tied up a coupla three more last night and did end up painting eyes on all of them. I'll post some photos later - it does make a huge different in their appearance, but I'm not at all convinced the fish care. That bonus grizzly king is SWEET! I may have to try my hand at one.

Thx Niveker, i gotta figure out my camera, it looked okay on my phone but boy is it blurry on a computer screen. 1 hour ago, flytire said: way above my tying ability 😢 Norm, I highly doubt that but I know there’s a few guys on the forum who are deer hair masters, hopefully one of them will pick it up.
