agn54 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2016 When you get a chance come on over to the saltwater board… You'll find more than a few mullet patterns there since they're pretty universal in the salt. I tie mine for the Everglades…. Oh, is this not the right place to post this? Sorry if not... I'm new here and never sure where to post The is the right place. The Fly Tying Bench is for discussion of any type of pattern, but a lot of us tend to post our salt water flies on the salt water board since it is a more specialized board. You can do either, but as Capt Bob said, you will find a lot of mullet patterns over there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McFlyLures 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2016 I want to appologise for my recent posts. I've been on edge the last few weeks for a few reasons. I thought at first you guys were just being picky about my beard, and I was taking offense. For that I appologise. I know now (with the exception of one individual) that you were just trying to help me make a better video, and I am grateful for that. I am working on a plain background of some sort in the next few weeks. Again I appologise for my outbursts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FattyMatt 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2016 I personally wouldn't want to cast that fly all day. I know that material sheds water but it's still going to be a heavy fly. If you insist on that fat mullet profile you can pull off that trick without all the fiber. Not to mention that material is so buoyant that without lead eyes or lead wrap, it's going to take forever to get that fly down in the stroke zone. Also, when using ep type fibers Krystal flash doesn't marry well. I much prefer gss or an angel hair. Here's one I did, tied much more sparse with a little lead. It's super light but gets down quickly. I could cast this all day without fatigue Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not really bad to cast infact it is quite easy when using the correct weight rod, and there is very little material on this fly. It looks bulky sure, but it's not. There are very common fly patterns that are more bulky than this, especially mullet patterns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
