Horned Toad 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

Looks great! If you wanted to get rid of that weed guard, you could cut the body to shape so the hook points barely sit above the foam like the gear version. However, I am not sure if the foam would have enough give to provide a proper hook up. Either way, great tie! I think I might copy it a few times.

Nice... that ought to get the job done.
The great thing about catch & release is that the fish can live to grow even larger.
In fact, I've known some fish to grow quite a bit larger before the fisherman even returned home.

Nice tie. Those double hooks look dangerous though! That might be a ''chuck 'n duck'' fly. laugh.gif

Chuck and duck...more like "lob and frog". I like it! Can't you just envision that thing, twitchin and bobbing next to a cattail stand or some lily pads. There one moment, then the water explodes, the rod tip jerks down, and the drag starts screaming! Oh, yeah, Daddy likes!
