Fish For Life 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 I was tying some walleye flys and giving them epoxy heads and really liked the look. I decided to make the whole fly with epoxy and am pretty pleased with the results. I gave them 2-3 layers of led wire to get them down fast to where the fish are. What do you guys think. Good or not so good of and idea. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phish 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 They looks good. I have them in that style but mainly use them on crappies and bass so there is no question they will on walleye. Are you fishing in a kayak on lake Erie? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ditz2 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 I think they look good. I have never fished anything in that style but it would be worth a try for bait fish eaters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kirk Dietrich 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 Those look great. A marabou tail with some supple flash material really adds some seductive action too. The LMB down here like those especially when they are feeding on schools of shad. Kirk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tidewaterfly 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 Superb! I've never fished for Walleye's, but understand they're often found near the bottom, and expect where you're going will have a rocky bottom. I think I would make something similar on a jig hook, to have the point up for reducing snagging. You also might consider adding a rattle inside the body.

phg 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 They look pretty good. The suggestion of adding some marabou to the tail, in addition to the Krystal Flash, is a good one. That will give them more movement. Let us know how they work out for you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kirk That is a good idea, adding a bit of marabou will give it some nice movement, thanks. . You also might consider adding a rattle inside the body. That also is a really good idea. Ill be sure to try that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
