McFlyLures 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2017 This fly is a new one I created. Its a fly that has worked well for me the last few trips. Its got a large head, and holds its shape well. The movement is great, and is the perfect sculpin imitation. It is heavily weighted and will sink to the bottom with ease. This is awesome for fishing large predator trout in streams or lakes, and also will work great for other species like bass and even pike. With different colors it could even mimic a mullet for fishing Redfish and Seatrout on the gulf. Hook: Daiichi 2220 - Size 4 Thread: Danville Big Fly Thread - Black Tail: Olive Zonker Strip Body: Kracken Dubbing - GT Olive Flash: Holographic Flashabou - Black Legs: Rubber Legs - Olive with black stripes Weight: Brass Dumbbell Eyes - 6mm - Nickel Bottom of the head: Bull Frog Dubbing: Golden Olive and Starburst Dubbing: Yellow Top of the head: Bull Frog Dubbing: Olive and Starburst Dubbing: Olive Resin: Solarez "Bone Dry" UV Curing Resin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McFlyLures 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2017 Sorry ... not accusing you ... I just like pictures of fish. Lol ok, so I don't have pics, but I'll try to take a few off the videos. They won't be high quality... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McFlyLures 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2017 Here are some... A 13-14" rainbow but its hard to see the fly, this is the best pic I could get though off the video. Here is a good pic of a 16" I got with the fly in his mouth. Here is a better pic of that same 16" fish. Just hard to see the fly in its mouth. You can watch this whole video here... http://youtu.be/PxNXptdomHYAnd I got a brown the other day on it at a lake. It was about 17"... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McFlyLures 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2017 Granted, the two rainbow were tied on a jointed version of this fly, basically a little longer... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McFlyLures 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2017 Any time Mike. Its tough for me to get pics off the video, and thats why I don't do it often. Also, the upload process on this forum is tough as well. How do I get the pics larger? Why do mine always end up so tiny? HAHA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2017 There are so many different video editing programs, and photo editing programs, that I can't answer your question. Â I use Windows Movie Maker to edit videos, and it allows "snapshots" to be taken at any point in the video. Probably much like every other editing program out there. Then I use Windows Photo to edit, and MSPaint to resize. Â But I will say, capturing snapshots off the video does not produce as good a photo as camera shots do.

McFlyLures 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2017 No your right, its no where close to as good of video. I use I-movie which allows for this. However, I only have so much storage on my computer, so after editing and uploading to youtube, I dump off the footage to an external hard drive, then delete it from my computer so I can make another video. LOL I do 3 videos a week right now, so that happens quickly. By the time I post anything on here, those video's would require (like this time) me to get my hard drive, remove the video I'm currently working on, dump the footage back onto my computer, then take it from there. Takes a good half hour to hour to do. Especially since I usually film at 1080p and have lots of footage. Most of the time I end up with 40gb-80gb of video files to transfer.

ev8d 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2017 i like it. i think i commented about using the dungeons materials in the last video i commented on here of yours a few weeks ago. i love that you have several original designs using his materials. its nice to see what others create with his stuff. and i'm pretty sure i subscribed but i'll double check that. i use the same things to brush out the kraken dubbing after spinning it in a loop, a needle and an old toothbrush. and i like the mix for the head. looks soft and flowy, if thats a word, just like wool. i've never used wool or tied a sculpin but to me it looks like it. which i'm pretty sure i've seen it used as a head material for sculpins Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
