Philly 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2020 Finally getting back to doing some tying. I was cleaning up and found some eyes I brought years ago. I was younger then and flashy things attracted me. Plus the maker guaranteed these eyes would make my poppers, sliders and streamers irresistible. They didn't. For lack of a better name the "Eye" fly. To give you and idea of the size, they're tied on size 6, 2xl hooks. Next up I picked these "squids" up at a fishing flea market. Can't go wrong for 5 for a $1. I think I was planning on making a daisy chain for lake trolling with spinning gear. Plan to use up all the eyes, might save a couple of squids and see if I can use them for legs on a frog pattern.
