yakfisher 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2005 This one has been the demise of quite a few largemouths over the last week or so. They really hit this thing hard. Here is the Recipe and tying instructions and some pics for the fly Eyes: Medium Gold Deep Water Eyes or Gold Bead Chain or none depending on desired sink rate Hook: 3/0 Gamagatsu B10S Stinger Hook Thread: Orvis White "G" Body: Ice Chinille(used White on this one) Under Tail : 15 to 20 strands of Crystal Flash Tail: Magnum Zonker Strip Over Tail: Medium Marabou Collar/Throat: Saddle Hackle 1. Tie in 15 to 20 strands of Crystal Flash on top at bend of hook. 2. Tie in Magnum Zonker Strip on top of Crytal Flash about two times the length of hook. 3. Tie in one or two Marabou feathers on top of Zonker Strip. 4. Tie one end of Ice Chenille at front of tail. 5. Advance thread to 1/4" from eye of hook. 6. Tie in Deep Water Eyes or Bead Chain if desired. (Note: The Eyes can be tied in first after preping hook with thread. Your choice) 7. Wrap thread back just behind eyes and tie in hackle. 8. Wrap Ice Chenille forward to eyes and wrap around eyes and tie off with a couple of thread wraps. 9. Palmer Hackle previously tied behind eyes and tie off. 10. Move thread to front of eyes and whip finish. Pics Here is the link that I got the pattern off of http://www.websitetoolbox.com/tool/post/eb...vpost?id=323028. This is an awesome pattern.
