smalliestalker 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2011 These are some of my favorite flies to throw when the smallies want to eat off the top....Tied on a 1/0 Mustad 34007 hook.... The big yellow looking one is a variation of muddler/zoo cougar tied with a rabbit strip tail that I use a lot for pickerel.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smalliestalker 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2011 thanks all....Mr. Vegas...I have a sculpin pattern that I make from deer hair....You can make the same kind of fly as the zoo cougar with olives on top, creams on the bottom, barred wood duck and olive rabbit as the tail. I put a little red on the under belly and I use those brown/cream pheasant feathers as fins. I tie the pattern upside down so the hook point rides up and I use red or yellow dumbell eyes to weight the head. You can stack the hair right over it....If I have time I'll post one up for you to check out.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
