deerhairdan 0 Report post Posted September 14, 2015 "Gandalf" articulated streamer - messing with Hareline's new "Slow Rolla Tails" this way pretty fun. Named it Gandalf for obvious reasons. A variant of Andreas Andersson's "Skinhead" "Fire Bream" - size 2/0 Partridge Predator X. Very bulky looking but very lightweight with a ton of movement. I bet the bass will slay this.

crazy4oldcars 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2015 I've been tying a good bit while recouping from surgery. Here is some of the produce. A softhackle: And a Red Wasp hair hackle. Wasps need water to make their nests. I've seen them land on the surface of ponds, and I've seen bream slap at them. I figured "What the hey, I'll try it." I'm going to treat the fly with a water repellant before I fish it. Kirk B. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
