arkle 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2007 I like it, like it a lot. Both flies and photo. Have you tried a combination of black(ish) body with a lime tail yet ? If not I bet you'll find it worthwhile! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruce Derington 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2007 Very nice looking flies you've tied , I could see a number of species pounding those :headbang: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyfisher anonymous 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2007 You would not believe the number of species I have caught on this fly. Walleye, Bass, Channel Cats, Carp, Pike, trout, and just about everything else. Sent some out west and the guys out there pounded Steelhead and Salmon on them too. I have tried numerous color combinations and they have all taken fish but once again some colors are better. Brown by far is the best producing.

If you ever get to the Everglades, bring along some in brown and tan I tie one very similar in tan (with red bead-chain eyes) and it has been killer on snook in small creeks!

flyfisher anonymous 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 Went on a cruise with the better half and managed to get into the Bass Pro Shop in Fort Lauderdale and the two guys working in the fly shop walked away with 2/3 of my DDH Leeches. Bonefish and Snook. Wish I could have been with them. Enjoy. Pounded Smallmouth with this fly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

willowhead 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2007 What hook is your standard to use????????/ mak Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyfisher anonymous 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2007 I have tried numerous different styles of hooks but the best I have used is a Talon TA-SA163C. These hooks are supplied by Superfly Inc. a Canadian wholesaler of fly tying materials. These hooks are a salmon fly hook with a straight eye and are a heavy wire. One of the best hooks I've ever used. For futher info on the hooks you can look at Superfly's web site. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
