Guida's Emerald Shiner

Recommended Posts

WOW the top one looks really realistic. You can't even see the hook. :o

 

Sorry, I couldn't resist. Nice tie, love the colours.

 

Thanks for sharing. :)

Great pattern Jim! I've had great success with a bucktail pattern (buckeye shiner) which has a very similar color scheme. The only difference is that I added a couple strands of yellow krystal flash along the hook shank to capture the yellow highlights along the top of the abdomen. I love the use of the rams wool along the belly of the fly.

Great baitfish tie! :headbang: Are you fishing the Erie tribs with this pattern? Would be a great pattern in Oak Orchard for the big browns!
