foam tail super worm 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

found this fly in the new feather craft. the fowam on the tail makes it dive streight down and gives the fly a wiggling action on the way down.

well they both work together. the fly wouldnt dive straight if the foam wasnt pulling the tail up.

yes i did with zap a gap. i had to apply some to the hide before gluing on the foam to harden it or it just seeps into the hide and the foam wont stay.

i threw this fly in my fishtank and it looks awesome. it dives very slowly and reminds me of a tube bait for spinning gear.

Thanks.

With spring approaching it may be just the ticket for Lakers in the shallow water. and certainly for big smallies in my favorite places.
