panfisherteen 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2008 I tied a fly for panfish,dont have pics though.here's the ingredients: Hook: size 6 Aberdeen Thread: White (or to match body color) Body: Tan(or whatever color you want) Superfoam (wrapped around hook shank) Tail: White Marabou (or whatever color you want) Bead Head: 3/16" gold To tie, simple put on bead head,then tie on a clump of marabou (about 1/2 shank in length).Cut a long thin piece of superfoam,tie it on,advance thread to bead,then wrap the foam around the shank to the bead head(tightly,but dont snap the piece). Simple,and I look to try it this summer.I want a slow sinking fly that rock bass and small smallmouth wil have to take a swipe at. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve P 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2008 Dude we so need a pic of this fly for reference I have been looking for something, that sinks slowly and that the goggle eyes won't have a choice but to clamp onto just to find out if it's edible or not and this sounds like the ticket. SO COME ON WITH THE PICS!!!!!! Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crappie 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2008 Here is a grub pattern from Tony Spezio. Hook size 12. Thread black body rat tail 2mm from craft store head black dubbing. Tie in at the tail and put a little zap-a-gap on this to make it more durable. crappie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
