Mike West 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2018 Holy smokes, Mike !!! That's a lot o' legs !!! Ya know when us Southern Warm Water Rednecks talk about Pocket WaterIts holes in the Lilly Pads, Salad or Timber. I tied this in numerous variations. The point is movement even when its just sitting there. Out of the top ten biggest Bass Ive caught in my life(pushing 14 lbs) at least 5-7 of them came on the light a cig, grab a beer retrieve We all fish too fast. Toss one of these things out..let the rings die down, pop it hard once...5 min. later its still moving. How many have done this? This was going to be Mr. Wiggles Jr. Allen B200 size 14 While packing the hair I broke the hook..you know how much time I have into this! Grrrr..

I think it would be killer on warmwater species near me. It's on my to-tie list. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it would be killer on warmwater species near me. It's on my to-tie list. I have not but that's a bug that would be pretty easy to imitate; just ordered some 1mm foam, blue included. I'll probably use something like Charlie Craven's Parachute Damsel as a base. I'd like to see what you come up with, too. Regards, Scott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
