BigDaddyHub 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2010 hell yeah! Bust dem bronze backs! I love the EP flies look. Flyfisher 13 just ordered EP fibers in about 6 colors. I've only tied one fly with it, but it turned out great. Easy to work with and you can get great profiles with little material. I would chuck your flies at bass anyday, Coinman.

I would toss yours too! The less EP fiber you use the better. Hope you catch the big one! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flyfish Dog 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2010 Nice ties. I been tying them since the day they came out. If I had only one choice, it would be EP Style flies. BTW I tie them up to 15 inches using Congo hair but the best lengths have been good for muskies in the 5 to 8 inch range mostly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

60mikes 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Flies are great.just tied up about 40.Mostly on #6 thru 1/0.Going to Islmorada on 4/12 for 7-10 days.Used the Silky fibres on all but the 1/0s.Went to the regular fibres on those.Tied up a heap of small Clousers w/Silky too.Will be first timee I fish the EPs.Only problem I had was using way too much fibre&redid them.Im sure you can find a market for them on ebay.Have also spoke with Enrico 5 or 6 times& he has been real encouraging& helpful as well.Been buying from Stockard as it seems he has the best inventory& prices arent bad.Again,nice ties.FD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flyfish Dog 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2010 A overdone EP is a great injured minnow bait on topwater! So if made a few like that then use them as they work well for certain times. I really like putting weed guards on them and pitch them in the nasties and quickly strip it on top. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
