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

Heres the rules...

1) Show a picture of your most productive largmouth fly.

2) Show a picture of a fish you caught with it. (if you have one)

3) Tell about the fish or the fly.(if you want to)


Lets see how many posts we can get.

We're just getting into gurgler season down here in FL. Need to get a few pics together. Here's what I've been using lately. A white gurgler with pearl palmer chenille and a marabou tail. Biggest bass ever taken on any type of tackle for me was on a chartreuse/pink gurgler (28"long x 20"girth).

consistently, I catch more LMB on big woolly buggers than anything else.

If I was an "expert" people would be paying me to do this stuff. I just like to do what works.

woolybuggers are really the ultimate pattern- fish cannot resist them whether they are trout salmon, bass you name it.

This one took a Cats Whisker..my second top producer for fly fishing for LMB.




This one took a pretty simple white foam popper which you can't see because it inhaled the fly so deep..no damage though a clean release



This fish took a goldie my all time top producing fly for just about anything.

I filled up two shopping carts late last night
The one was full of fishing gear, the other newcastle ale
The checkout-lady laughed and said 'You think you got enough'
And I said 'Yeah, You're probably right', and filled another two carts up
Gonna catch all the fish, Gonna drink all the beer, Gonna head outta town, We're not staying here
Might take all day, might take all year, Till we catch all the fish, Till we drink all the beer

Well the gurgler, which is usually the best big bass fly for me, has been relatively unproductive. So, I've gone to a big zonker-tailed version of a "slider". 2/0 Gamakatsu SC-15, magnum zonker, orange flash, marabou, spun deer head, medium red dumbell eyes, and a 40# fluoro in-line weedguard. They must think it's a rough imitation of a crawfish, because it gets crushed.
