  1. Just wondering if anyone has the pattern recipe for the Rainy's Carp Snack fly? I've seen the pattern for sale at various websites but can't find the pattern recipe to tie some up for myself.

     

    Looking at the fly, I agree that it is probably an egg yarn, but probably tied on to mono, or even glued on to mono and trimmed to the corn shape. Rainy is a genius at combining common techniques into distinctive flies (which can be commercially tied).

     

    IMO, this looks more like a fly to catch fishermen than fish.

    this might look like it would catch the fishermans eye. well fishing with corn is a great way to catch trout, bluegill, carp, and a bunch of different type of fish. But some people say that canned corn can kill trout so a fly that looks something that looks like would probably work very well.

     


  2. When one is tying to his heart's desire, cost is often a secondary concern, young Blake. Nice tie. That screams , "Eat Me!!"

    And how very right you are! To be honest, I was going on word of mouth. The real Murdich Minnow, as it was told to me was expensive to tie, so I wouldn't know otherwise. But I know ignorance is no exception... my apologies.

     

    They are quite expensive all you need is hooks, flashabou, bucktail, some eyes, estaz, and ice fur...

     

    I think the expensive was alright, because it catches me small mouths, large mouths, stripers, blues, pike, a lot of different fish and all that ties up about 25 or so. so to me it was well worth the expense.


  3. Hey guys my dad and I were planning on taking a trip up to the Beaverkill River in june and july. So i was just wondering if anyone has fished it.

     

    If so what are the best flies there, i know i can just look look at a hatch chart but i like to hear from peoples real life experience. Thank you.

  4. Yeah i also saw that pattern tied by Davie, i love his flies he makes such great videos.

     

    Thanks everyone i didnt think that this post would spark up such a big conversation with everyone, i saw many great patterns by everyone... But this weekend i need to run to the local fly shop or order some more materials im running low on some of the items.


  5. Hey there, i was focusing on fishing more small mouth this year and i know that you always needs one good crayfish pattern for smallies. So i was just wondering if any of you guys out there have a easy but killer crayfish pattern.

     

    Also any other small mouth patterns would also help.
