smalliestalker 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2010 A new pattern I've been playing with for top water pickerel.....It is super light, moves a ton of water, can throw up a splash when stripped hard, wiggles with a uni knot, slides over all of the slop that pickerel live under......

Kirk Dietrich 0 Report post Posted August 30, 2010 Great looking fly. Stippled beat me to it; in the profile picture, the head looks like a duck bill. Good job! Kirk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
