Bass Bug

Recommended Posts

This is my first try at stacking eyes in a bass bug. Last night I thought of a new way to combine white and black for the eyes. I'll give that a try this weekend.

Look like it will really catch some bass under the right surcumstances.

 

 

Not really, I just started playing with it this week.

 

This is really crappy deer hair that wouldn't spin or flare, but I was just playing around to see if it was possible. Please don't "grade the fly" :)

It looks like you've to the packing/spinning thing pretty sell set. Once you get the trimming part down you'll be rocking! A REALLY sharp razor blade and those flies should clean up nice. :thumbsup:

 

Those are some extremely cool flies in the link. B)

Believe it or not it's the deer hair. That hair wouldn't even compress or flair. I just bent it up and pushed it back. Here are two more done the same night, all three trimed with a new double edge blade.

and another with the crappy hair. You can't even cut it with scissors.

That's really good, I wouldn't have thought it was your first try at eyes. Mine were definitely worse. I like 'em!
