BigDaddyHub 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Many crappie fell to this one this spring. Nice...kind of a Squirrel nymph variation...would be a great smallie nymph! SB32, check out this thread...TREMENDOUS information...helped me greatly as I, too, had never used a furled leader and had little information on the subject: http://www.flytyingforum.com/index.php?showtopic=43557 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimk 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Thanks guys, it is a variation of a squirrel nymph , I was fishing it as a dropper using a floating jig head with a buggy looking critter tied to it to make a strike indicator - worked like a charm. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mickalo 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Loren. I was a little lost about furled leaders myself. Last year I picked up a couple of them for my 5wt, my main go-to rod, and the one I put on last year is still in use today. I think once you've tried them you'll be sold Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
