  1. DoubleHaul, For largemouth bass they work better then anything I have ever tried, bar none! Mikechell, They are made very stiff by double furling, more like rope then your normal furling. Some chenilles break before you get the tension needed to hold the hook right. The flies are hookless when you first make then and a hook is added to the fly like a plastic worm. The fish will not hook themselves the these, you need to use a hard hook set.
  2. If you are referring to the Delta as the place you were fishing, may I give you a few words for winter Delta bass? 1. Try the inside (shore side) of the weed beds in the sun. 2. Shallow areas that hold still water long enough to warm up even a little in the sun. 3. Fish with flies that are unique/ different and medium size, the fish there see lots of pressure these days and are not easy to catch. Good luck .................................20-250ai/ Aric.
  3. BF, Ya, the tails are fly tails by Waspy These are called Aric's worms, I've been tying then since Culprit worms were all the rage. I must say, with the new chenilles that are available the colors that I now can make are awesome. At one time, when I was attending collage in Mississippi, all I could find was Estaz at a fabric store 45 miles way.
  4. Some bass worms / lures? These take less then 2 minutes to tie and fish well from both floating and sink tip lines down to 15/20 feet depending on line wt. and weight added to sink these. All those of us that venture to the dark side in spinning/ casting tackle know that worms work. These are fished slow with a drag hop retrieve if weighted, but seem to work best on a slow fall, painfully slow works best.
  5. Hello from the west coast of Ca. I hope to learn from you on this forum, meet some kind people here and share in our sport. I per fur to go after warm water fish in summer and trout in the cool months. Largemouth bass are my favorite target species, but like a lot of us find great joy in panfish when the opportunity arises. ..............................................20-250ai/ Aric
