These are not as pretty as the flies that PikeFFArticles makes but they are very effective. Tied on a mustad 34007 2/0

That's a great tie. I like the red in the middle it's a great trigger.

How did it feel with the 6 wt?

Nice control center :headbang:, your CPU looks like a space ship. Nice!!!!!

Did a certain Brit tip you off? or were your ears burning? Nice that you found this site, it would be cool to see some of those flies in the database. Not too many guys on tubes here.

maybe it'll show up in the LCBO for Christmas. I'll keep my eye out for it. Thanks

Interesting concept, a hybrid fly. I'd be interested to know how it fished. What weight rod are you planning to use?

I'm about an hour away in Ancaster; I pass through Fergus when I hit the brookies on the upper saugeen. My favorite fish are the snot rockets. Theres some great waters all around the area.

I read this guys blog everyday and he has some amazing pike flies in his arsenal. Worth checking out.

Bookmarked :headbang: I picked up a bunch of those hooks at troutfitters a few weeks ago and I can't wait to try them out. CF

I do not have the new mug. Do I need to go to Nova Scotia to get it?

Just wanted to wish Alexander Keith born Oct 5. 1795 a happy 214th birthday. I have many lost memories do to his beer. CF

That fly rocks :headbang: and that's what I call a nice snot rocket. CF

Your photos are sick. The ones on your blog are the best photos I've seen in a long time. How do you get such sharp clear images? It seems unreal.

see where your coming from but mind you thinking about it you have lakes in canada that are the size of the uk :bugeyes: I don't fish a lot of the big lakes I prefer the smaller local reservoirs. I have one 15 minutes away that's only 3 feet deep and holds lots of large pike. It's weedy, windy and not very popular with the locals. A good hour of fishing there can produce a dozen+ pike.

I'm more concerned with where the pike are, what depth I need my fly to be and you need to know the action and speed of the fly in the water. It may look like a big bait fish on your vice but it doesn't act or look like a bait fish once it hits the water. I also like to have a varity of different sized flies large and small all tied with different materials to get different actions when one action is not working I'll switch to another one. By constantly changing your flies, your presentation and your retrieval is what will give you the most hits. I get big pike on big flies and on small flies but I feel it's the action and speed of the fly that gets the strike.

I hope you see a big swirl. Great fly.
