SamH 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2011 Big J, I know this is bad since i pushed for this swap, but i must pull out if you dont mind. I am sure Breambuster might like this one. I Have got to try to be packed and ready to move by the 16th and with 2 kids and a wife. I am hustling. I am so sorry. I am only about half done and don't think i can get them done in time. Thanks for understanding. Sam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

breambuster 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2011 After talking with Big J, I'm going to be taking SamH's spot in this swap. Sorry he had to drop out. And I know all about moving, having done it several times. It's a LOT of work, and VERY time consuming. Not to mention, a lot of trouble finding stuff once you get to your new location. Best of luck, Sam. OK, I'm been trying to come up with something different for this swap. And I ran across an article that mentions that Reul Staynor, the originator of the Staynor Duck, says that he came up with the pattern to catch trout, but that it became his most productive bream pattern. I'm never tied it, much less fished it, but I'm going to tie some up for this swap. I've been thinking about trying it for a while now, and this is a good opportunity to tie some and try fishing it. Have any of you guys ever used it for bream fishing? I understand that it's also a very productive pattern for smallmouth bass. I'm going to be tying it in a size 10 which ought to be good for bream. That's my standard size bream fly hook. Let me know what you think about it when you get yours, and let me know how you like fishing it. I'm going to be trying it out this Spring and Summer. Take care BB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Take care BB I think I meet him in Idaho when I was really really young! Or maybe went to his shop in twin falls Idaho.. Something like that, Look at this article.. http://www.anglerguide.com/articles/116.html I knew roger in the article as well and John Buzzard. I fished the stayner ducktail for years on the henry's fork and had great success. I would easily say I have caught 100 trout on it and caught the biggest one of my life when I was 16 on it as well.
