Crackleback 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2012 My flies will be in the mail in the morning. I tied biot nymphs. I'd wager I caught as many trout on these last year as I did all other flies combined. Granted they were usually on the end of a Frenchy leader but they'll work fine nymphed normal. Hook: Mustad R50X #14 Thread: Benecchi 12/0 olive Bead: Tungsten, black Tail: Coq de Leon, medium pardo Butt/Hotspot: Flor. Fire Orange Ultra-thread Abdomen: Turkey Biot, olive Thorax: Squirrel SLF, dark olive in split thread -Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CrookedHook 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2012 you got gar pike in OK trust me they will hit a fly also Yeah we got some gar thats for sure. And ya know I have never though about flying for those. Bet that would be a heck of a ride. Have to be a good size rod though I imagine with some steel leader. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riffleriversteelheadslayer 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2012 today brought 2 more sets just 2 sets left to go first set is a small baitfish pattern by mybadhabit I am sure the crappie in my lake are going to decrease just from this fly alone and the second set is going to be single handedly responsible for putting a huge dent into the trout population everywhere I can see why you said that about this fly crackleback its got fish magnet wrapped with every turn of thread Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
