Chase Creek 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2008 Really nice fly. Think the pigboat called for something like 56 rubber legs for the skirt. Like the fewer legs, but I'll bet just as effective. Going to tie some of these up for the Huron and Grand River (Mich.) Smallies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted January 7, 2008 I had honestly never heard of the pig boat. I just googled it :wallbash: I guess my idea is not as new as I thought... Oh well it fishes like a dream!!! :headbang: That just goes to show your creativity! :headbang: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TerryLee 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2008 I'll vouch for this fly. It works well on largemouths, particularly in and around heavy cover. If you fish it just like you'd fish a, well, a plastic spider grub you'll do great. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SullyTM 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2008 day5...Enjoyed your video. Can you fill us in on that plastic gizmo you used to strip the fur. It looks like a "must have." Later... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
day5 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2008 The plastic gizmo is the petitjean magic tool. it does make handling fur for loop easier and there are a gazillion other uses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dsaavedra 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2008 wow! this is a great fly. it looks like it would be killer on a tube fly. too bad i dont have ANY of the materials to make it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
troutbum421 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2008 I just tied up a couple of these and they were suprisingly easy to tie. I don't have the magic tool but I used a chip clip and it worked great. Can't wait for warm weather to get out and give this a try. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
