Current Tags for This Pattern / baitfish / bluegill / crappie / KILLER / panfish / Streamer / Tinsel / white / Crappie Killer![]() tied by cornmuse Fly Type: Bucktails/Deceivers, Target Species: Freshwater Bass, Panfish, Recommended Region: Central US, Imitation: General Baitfish, Material List: This is a fly that evolved from a fly I tied nearly 40 years ago in Massachusetts where it was designed as a killer of calico bass (crappie). A moment's nostalgia had me update the fly to 2010 standards. Here is the pattern for the 2010 version: Thread: cream 6/0 Hook - 3xl streamer, size 5 and 8 Tail- white rabbit body - tightly dubbed white rabbit ribbing - medium flat silver tinsel, metal beard - white rabbit wing - coyote Tying Instructions: In the order in which the materials are listed. Presentation Tips: This fly is tied unweighted so it sinks VERY slowly. Fish it with an almost painfully slow hand-twist retrieve. Crappie and perch will tear this fly up. Fish it on an intermediate line for deeper presentations in still water. | ![]() Other Flies Tied by cornmuse Members That Bookmarked This Fly Also Bookmarked...
