fshng84 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2014 Warm weather here in Texas and the Trout Stocking Season has since passed. Here is one that worked well in the Stock Ponds and the Guadalupe River this past Season as well as Seasons past. It's a variant of the larger Guadalupana Fishing Fly. The one in the picture uses a Palmered Hackle but it can be tied like a Wet Fly Hackle as well. Here are details on tying one - COAF Guadalupana Fishing Fly. Works on Bluegill and Sunfish, too!

fshng84 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2015 Started out catching Bluegill and a Bass with the COAF Foam Damsel Fly... switched to a COAF Guadalupana and caught a few more Bluegill and a Bass. Fun stuff! Today's Video Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fshng84 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2015 So... It's a Beadhead wooly bugger...? Pretty much, other than it uses peacock herl instead of chenille and the original pattern called for a Wet Fly hackle wrap instead of Palmered. Have used them in Wet Fly hackle as well as Palmered; some days it makes a difference, other times it doesn't. Have fished both BH Wooley Buggers and the COAF Guadalupana; same holds true... some days they want one over the other. But, that's fishing. :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fshng84 0 Report post Posted September 29, 2015 Had an opportunity to get a round of fishing in this evening. Went with the Four Weight Fly Rod/Reel and only one fishing fly - the COAF Guadalupana. Total count this round - two Bluegill, one Sunfish, nine Bass, and a Happy Fisherman! Still no Bruisers; still lots of fun. Today's Video. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fshng84 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2017 Forgot about this fishing fly. Been using the Near Deere, Griffith's Gnats,and PMC Emergers lately. But, our version of the Guadalupana is a good one to keep handy! Tied a couple this evening! COAF Guadalupana Fishing Fly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good news - Guadalpanas worked and limited out on trout! Bad news - ran out of Guadalupanas! Post. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
