mybadhabit 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2013 Very nice looking fly hairwing! What a coincidence, today I tied the only "wet fly" pattern that I fish with as well. Western coachman. What are you using for a wing on this one? Blane Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
switch10 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2013 What are you using for a wing on this one? The straight ones are bucktail, and the curly ones are calf tail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

9wt 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2013 Sawyer's Killer Bug I'm sure this fly would catch fish but I have some originals & they are more tapered (carrot-shaped). Hard to find the yarn specified by Sawyer; long discontinued & cards sell for $$$ in the UK! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunsignarcher 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2013 i bought the yarn in this vid from Blazing Needles in Utah so my kids can tie up this crane fly larvae. Its a very close sub for the original yarn used in the killer bug. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crackaig 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2013 This has been the fly of the season so far. Its accounted for about 30% of the fish for two of us. Then a variation on a classic dry fly, The Double Badger. Red tag and head. Just an experiment, might prove effective. Cheers, C. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hairwing 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2013 Lunchtime steelhead caddis on some barbless hooks. Hey Jam....that must have been a trip. Tyin' on a down eye hook. Did you have to flip the hook upside down in the jaws to re-learn from the up-eyes LOL? Nice job. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
