TheCream 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2016 Wasn't too sure I liked this one when it came off the vise, but then I tested it in my tank. Looked really good where it matters. The body looks nice and messy, it's a Complex Twist of yellow and olive schlappen with black UV Polar Chenille. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jokey 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2016 Looks awesome Cream. Nice thing about using schlappen in a twist with polar chenille is that neither material seems to dominate the other and you get a nice mix and showing of both. Well done. J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caloosa bug 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2016 Cream, that looks awesome. Is there any weight on it? Lead wraps on the hook or in the head? I've made a few concoctions like this, but they ended up looking like a mop on top of the water. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike West 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2016 My favorite "do all" fly. Been tying it for probably around 25+ years in this color,Yellow & Chartreuse. Weighted and Unweighted. From 1" - 6" + Catches everything that swims. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've made a few concoctions like this, but they ended up looking like a mop on top of the water. Weightless. I want it to fish shallow. It's essentially the unweighted version of the conehead Bow River Bugger variant I posted earlier on this thread. I just swapped deer hair for Laser Dub and the pocket eye cone for a Fish Mask.

Mike West 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2016 TheCream, I really like your work with the Fish Skulls. I haven't messed around with those yet,been out of it for a few years and I'm just getting warmed back up. I'm going to have to get me some of those to play around with. Lots of Ideas running through my head. I found out my eyes are worse than I thought once I started tying again....going have to get me some magnification help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
