Joe Hard 0 Report post Posted September 19, 2005 Great idea for a small fly. I can see that fly being a top producer. Great fly!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
siestafred 0 Report post Posted September 19, 2005 The basic pattern came from a Dave Hughes book, altho I've tweaked it a bit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fly1 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2005 Nice one Fred. On a hot summer day at the Caledon Mt Trout club one guy was pulling them out one after another and he showed me the fly he was using and it was a tiny Prince like yours Ken Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mcmutt 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2005 I can barely see that small & my fat fingers won't let me tie that small!! That, and my Regal kinda snickers when I put something that small into it. Nice job,one of the most used flies in North America,for a reason!!! Jamie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
siestafred 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2005 Ken, I use that fly on the Grand alot this time of the year, with terrific results. AA, I'm going to be fishing in Western NC later in October and I think it'll kick some butt there too ! Fred Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jjhaag 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2005 i tie a similar one with brown partridge flank fibers for a hackle. landed the largest trout of my life (so far, hopefully ) on it. very effective, and saves having to tie in the forked tail of the standard prince. the rainbows and cutts out west in alberta just love it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
siestafred 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2005 I'll have to try the Partridge. That would make a very 'buggy' looking fly! Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
