Anyone using large streamers for smallies?
Mandoyak replied to josh shock's topic in The Fly Tying Bench
This time of year in a smallie stream I don't think you can get them too big. Big and heavy. Big streamers worked along the bottom can get you some hawgs. -
Very nice! Looks good n' cray-fishy.
-
Man I love the colors on that fly. Nice job.
-
NIce tie!
-
Nice clean work. I know a pond where the gills & bass would tear that assortment up! :thumbsup:
-
I'm in Louisville so I'll be sure to check out the website. :thumbsup:
-
I'm lucky. My wife likes to fish and encourages me to tie flies if I enjoy it. But she hates it when I leave my empty beer bottle on the kitchen counter...so it balances out. :dunno:
-
Nice. That would make a nice smallie fly also.
-
I saw them last September on the first leg of the S&A tour in Cincinnati. Awesome show! 3.5 hours of pure entertainment plus Digital Man, Entre Nous & Circumstances...seeing those three songs in person was worth the drive and the price of admission. You'll love it but they have tweaked the setlist this time around.
-
Now that was a tour to witness. Best setlist of all time. Lucky you.
-
I've caught nice smallies off of a pattern like that. I picked it up in a swap from the board as a matter of fact.
-
I buy the knotless tapered and make a loop after several flies have shortened it and slap on some 4, 6 or 8lb. test mono depending on the situation. I am looking into a furled leader though after hearing nothing but good things about them.
-
Nice and wiggly. Just what bass like, nice tie.
-
Awesome tie. The colors & shape look like a plastic grub that just kills on my local streams...looks like I'll be tying some up!
-
A buddy of mine tied a craw pattern out of deer hair that floated and it was very effective so I wouldn't worry about it being too floaty unless it just won't sink at all without help.
-
I'm looking forward to this set of flies. After what's hopefully the last cold weekend until Blackberry Winter in May, the next few weekends should be cranking up the smallie action.
-
They gotta be there now?
-
Did you get 'em all?
-
:headbang: Whew! Got mine done (finally...) minutes ago and they are in the mail tomorrow. And Stony, there's a special color in there just for the host!
-
I'll have mine out in a couple of days. Looking forward to all the flies.
-
Quick ties for some vacation pond action...
-
Got held up with work yesterday but I got the flies in the mail today. I'm out all week away from the computer...fishin' no less, so y'all have a good week.
