Arkansas Mike 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2009 Hi, LeviD. Great job! I guess talent runs in your family. I bet there are a lot of fish out there that'll go for that. As far as how to make it better... Hmmmm. It's pretty darn good, but I'd listen to what your brother says. Wish I had him looking over my shoulder when I'm at the vise. Keep at it, and let's see some more... Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil Richmond 0 Report post Posted July 15, 2009 Better than any of mine and I've tied a few dozen! Great job. I remember when I was in like 6th grade, I tried tying flies. Didn't have good materials so used pipe cleaners and fishing line, then couldn't figure out why the pipe cleaner rusted. :wallbash: Definitely could have used someone pointing me in the right direction back then.

smallieFanatic 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2009 Me and Levi went to bass pond tonight and he fished this very fly--the little slabs went crazy over it. We caught eleven or twelve, and at least half were on this fly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
