flytire 0 Report post Posted January 29, 2017 Just because I used that hook doesn't mean you have to also. Just tie them or any other fly on whatever brand, style, size that you want I've never needed size 28 to fish the San Juan river or any other river and have caught my fair share of fish Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fisherboy0301 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2017 Mike! Those are neat! I like then and I'm sure te fish will too! Is it just me or are you branching out from your usually few patterns? Pretty soon you'll be tying all kinda of crazy fun things you'll never use, like me! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2017 BCT ... You still have some "learnin'" to do ... Kimo is STILL the king of the scud patterns!! Thank you, fisherboy. I, intentionally, left the "hackle" (craft fur dubbing loops) long and messy. Bluegill usually like leggy flies. Yes, I've tried some new things (way outside my normal fishin' flies) ... but it's the result of weeks in a hotel without fishing gear or other hobbies. At home, I've got a bunch of other projects that share time with fly tying. Don't get your hopes up, LOL, it's only a temporary cabin fever like tying spree.

johnnyquahog 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2017 TheCream ... I love the matching pants that goes with the shirt. Are those the medium or large pants? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCream 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2017 I want to say Medium...I honestly didn't look at the package. I just knew that was the size I wanted for this hook. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SILKHDH 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2017 LOL, pants and skirt. I was going to advise on a name for that, but I decided not to touch it. LOL. THE CREAM, Is a VERY VERY clean and super well packed fly. I give two thumbs up on that one. Really nicely done. That dog will hunt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
