the ones ive seen on the u tubes were like the 2nd group even more sparse sure they will all catch

mailed mine today from il

i have seen several rigs with up to 3 flies on a leader. i will settle on one leader bout 3ft from the 3 way swivel and another a foot or two above it that will be 5ft back. that one will be on a small swivel or loop knot on the main line.i also tied some flies bucktail over satin and all satin.the fish will have to let me know what they like

i thought the main aspect of a one fly contest was multiple aspects that could be removed from the fly usinga full fly in the am, remove some legs as the day get brighter, remove some foam so it sinks at mid day then trim it short for a hatch in the pm sort of a one fly covers all

guess its about 15 for ill residents extra for trout salmon stamp. our gov did raise license plates for my boat trailer from 18 bucks to 118. please dont let him know about the 2nd rod sticker.

how long is the croc?

we have a small park district lake in rochelle il. its 80 acres i plan to troll the bucktails while i explore the depths and make a map. once an area is found i can cast away.

ive heard alot of anglers trolling/pulling bucktail flies on a 3 way rig for walleyes and white bass.most are just simple two color bucktail on a 2 or 4 sized hook. i would think a salmon style hook would be better than a straight eye or down eye. has anyone ventured into this way of fishing ?

in my younger years [the 60's] i fished gapens muddler jig and ugly bug.he always suggested using a small pork rind on the tail of the muddler jig.the ugly bug jig was a old relative of todays tequelly fly .

ill do a dozen smallmouth flies.. gladly

i have a new favorite worm . i will join in BUT i dont want any flies. i have too many. i ll send in for all tyers in the swap rich mce

hey mike ,you fished the ponds on your travels to illinois a few years ago and fished with the originator of the wee willie craig reindeau

hey rick, i was at the dubuque fly show on the 7th. been busy furling eyelash yarn into big minnow patterns and dragontail style tails. also doing a lot of flies tied with satin.

those two fish are probably at the local bar telling tall angler tales of how they pulled a fast one on the fisherman.. now they have the rods to prove it

wow im able to post now .been about a year of reading the posts seeing some pics and having mike add some comments for me .

got mine yestrerday and they are just what myfly box needed or should i say my grandson just had to have them for his box. my hats off to the tyers

crappie.com. to theforums, go down to the 8th forum, jig tying that has 3 sub forums, swaps are there.

worse part is when they slow down to watch and stand right in line with your backcast and you politely say could you move a little more and they say we were quiet trying not to disturb you.

its under the forum of jig tying,plastics . i signed up

tell me about the fish holding tool never seen one before

color and size is no problem to change.i tried tying one on an offset worm hook with weight along the bottom of shank and in black with blue legs. small bass liked it.

this fly is sold only in yellow legs and copper body. has anyone tied it in other colors or variations ?

i use t shirt paint crystal gel is white but dries clear with sparkle then i add a black dot and white pupil

lost my only materelli whip at a tying session.boy do i miss it.had to retrain on another style. i have to use a tool as my hands are very rough and line catches on every twist.

got mine done ,will be mailed tuesday
