Trying some fibers....

Recommended Posts

Over in the salt.... synthetics are all the rage. Most that I know will try to use them as sparsely as possible... A good rule of thumb is that you should be able to see your hand -right through the fly (that sparse...). Me? I'm pretty much set in my ways and stick to natural fibers.

I'm a fan of anything that has a natural taper. That being said, Congo hair is just so damn affordable and the same exact as ep so I do use that as well. Things like pseudo hair, craft fur, bucktail, fox, natural taper..

Gotta love those eyes on the top streamer. May not catch one more fish than any others but just gives that fly an "attitude" of the school yard bully and don't mess with me unless you're a lot bigger and hungry.
