The Wookie New Pattern Database Submission
 Dear FTF Member,Support FTF by Subscribing to Hatches Today! 2011 Issue - In Stock Since 2003 FlyTyingForum.com has grown from a handful of people to 30,000 registered members and has become the largest fly tying community in the world. In 2007 I published the first issue of Hatches because I felt the FTF community could offer a printed magazine that far exceeds anything the fly tying world has ever seen published. To this day, Hatches is largely made up of articles submitted to me by FTF member and FTF will continue to play a large role in the future of Hatches. Hatches truly is a grassroots effort, unlike many of the other publications in circulation that have the backing of large media corporations. The future of both Hatches and FTF depends on the support of FTF members like you. For $7 a year, you not only help ensure that I have the resources needed to be able to offer you all of the features you enjoy today free of charge, you also get 96 pages of pure fly tying awesomeness that is worth the price by itself. Click Here for Subscription Info Thank You -Will |

I tossed a popper with those legs just last saturday....caught a bass! You'll need to find a bigger bass though, that fly is huge!
Very nice!
Hey, it's Twofingerz! Nice looking fly for pike, huh?

I fish these on a fly fishing only lake here in Oregon. It used to be a trophy trout fishery but has since become a bass fishery due to some introductions. So now it is a fly fishing only trophy bass fishery basically. Bass averaging 5-10lbs.

pike fly for sure. and in natural brown it would be a sure fire hit. pike are concentrating on round gobies right now and brown is the color of choice. actually the smallies are doing the same so brown would work for either. the weed beds are dying back and the gobies are running out of places to hide so now the predators are really keying in on them in the shallower waters.

I might also add that it may work well casting for walleyes. My home lake here in Iowa is pretty shallow and full of decent sized walleyes thanks to a slot limit. I also fish some farm ponds where this would be deadly, I may try it with a red and black color scheme, or a black and olive w/black redflake rubber legs. I know the black/chart. will kill the walleyes, they love anything white, chartreuse, and/or shiny with some action to it.

The Wookie resurrected. Dave-O those sound like some great color schemes. Also, I've used just a natural barred brown for the body color then bright eyes and rubber legs with much success. Also, another variation is to use a solid color tail with the white leather strip and color the strip with a marker to your choice. A few Krystal flash strands under the tail is another variation I've done.
Good luck, and don't forget to duck on the forward cast.
