day5 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2009 Killer adaptation of a great fly! Todd will like it I'm sure! have you ever thought of adding a prop behind the body? Greg Coffey (sparkleminnow, Coffey grinder) does this on the Coffey grinder and it is an awesome fly! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Love 'em! -- Mike http://kwikcrafts.com/crafts/product/E4.html Thanks, check out all the materials they have, lots of it can be used to tie with. I get my 6mm foam here also.

Thanks, I thought about putting a prop on the back but I don't know how the wiggle motion and the spinner would work together. I do make a fly somewhat similiar to the coffe grinder (Just not as nice). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smallieFanatic 0 Report post Posted July 6, 2009 I made one of these and I just used pre-cut foam body that I carved to shape. The easiest way to go i think. Hey Jan, would you mind posting a pic of it? Heres one I tied, I just use the Spirit River pre-cut popper bodies cut to shape. This fly here obviously is nowere near the caliber of smfishers, but I think it will catch sumthin. Jan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
