lykos33 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2012 Hook: #8 Allen 2302 Tag: Blue Flash FTD Body: Grey Flymaster 6/0 Rib: Blue Flash FTD Abdomen: Peacock Herl Collar: Blue Short Cock Hackle Saw the flash, wanted to try it as a rib or body...went well with the grey flymaster so rib it was. Threw a blue hackle into the mix and then that @#%@% song from 5th grade French class started in my head..."bleu, bleu, lamour est bleu"...Someone shoot me...it won't stop!!!!!!!

Peterjay 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2012 Looks good Murray! It's fun playing around with flash - I use it on a lot on my saltwater heads. BTW: you should consider yourself lucky you've got a nice French song running through your head. With me, it's usually the theme from "Mr. Ed," or worse yet, "Gilligan's Island." On one particularly gruesome day, it was "Surfer Bird," by the Trashmen. Now THAT was a bad day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lykos33 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2012 Thanks Peterjay, I guess you're right..if I walked around humming Gilligan's Isle all day I would get some baffled looks.
