  1. I've posted links to these flies on a few other forums.

    These are good flies--streamers tied onto a snelled hook.

    The idea is to somehow make a flexible, sparsely-tied fast-sinking streamer still

    light enough to cast. Another way to think about these flies is as a new

    take on how to make an articulated streamer. I've been working on these for

    several years now. That they were "good fish-catching flies" I established

    (at least for my own purposes) a long time ago. But it's taken me a while

    to iron out the most efficient tying details and techniques.

    RE> scaring sharks with a poke of the rod tip.

    Yes, I discovered that one early on myself. 4' Lemons will sometimes cruise right at you or near-by,

    often not even noticing you are there. But a quick slap of the rod tip seems to send them off

    in a huge panic.

     

    I told that to Eddy Bannister, of Lisbon Creek. Eddie said "oh ya, but when that shark turn around

    and come back again, you betta run fass. You not scare him twice!"
