rugbyfisherman 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2010 Not bad. I think there would be a lot of missed hook-sets. That is a SUPER full fly plus heavy weed guard. I'll jig with my spinning rod setup. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pat M 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2010 I've done a couple of these flies already and its fairly easy to do. I elected to not attach the weed guard thinking the same thing in regards to the all the rabbit used in the pattern. Good Stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bad fish rising 0 Report post Posted May 21, 2010 if you can cast that fly 6 feet your a better caster than me looks very heavy to me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FishyboY 0 Report post Posted May 21, 2010 fish it on an 8wt. anything less would be hazardous to your health! i fish all my bass flies on an 8wt because i can throw big meat sandwiches! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neoFLYte 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2010 That's the most industrial strength fly I have ever seen. I'm not sure I could manage it on my 8 wt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FishyboY 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2010 probally because the guy then submitted it to umpqua. i do belive umpqua caries that fly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrismartin 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2010 That's a great looking brown trout fly! Also, a lot of guys on this thread need to sack up and chuck it on a 5 wt. rig. You don't need a cannon to throw big flies, just adjust your casting stroke to allow for a more open loop and use the weight of the fly to shoot your line.

FishyboY 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2010 if that fly hits the tip of your rod even if it does not break immediately then it soon will. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
