Nice batch of flies, flytire. I'm guessing you ran out of money to count, and it's still too cold for the grass to be growing?

What is the name of this fly?

[shoebop 0]

It looks like a tied down caddis without the hackled legs. Maybe flytire has a different name for it though.

What is the name of this fly?

This is a devil bug. I see it also referred to as a Cooper bug. However, I knew Jack Cooper and the tail is trimmed on his bugs.

not sure you need my answer but.....

 

its called a devil bug and/or a cooper bug or a tied down caddis or a tom thumb or a doodle bug. a fly of many variations.

 

google each one for reference

Wow, I haven't been or posted here in a while but I'm so glad to see that the great fish and flies are still flowing, as well as some new names around here. Well, here's some flies, fresh from the vice; the snow is keeping me from using them unfortunately.

 

Simple deer-head streamer w/ stinger hook

 

Trio of messy Flash Buggers, nice and weighted for those big browns

 

Simple stone nymph

 

One of my go-to's for the backcountry, a modified Goddard

 

Awesome little emerger, I tie a ton of these

 

One of my favorite nymphs: goose biot tail and shellcase, three are used for the shellcase and extend over the whole body, secured by pearlescent tinsel. (Looks pretty messy here, but it's a great fly.)

 

Thank You and Tight Lines!

P.S. I'm probably going to have some formatting issues in posting this- I forgot my routine for posting- so I apologize in advance.

Keep posting Carson, nice work. February and March have been outstanding months, all 2017 for that matter. Run back over those threads, if you haven't already... There are many hookers and lookers, plus some of the crayfish looked like cookers, but that's they roll,here....

Wow Cream, you don't see bluegills like that very often.

That's a nice slab, Cream. Good looking foam beetles, too.
