tcr 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2006 Glad you liked the Pike fly the materiel used is Triple flash Hanks. Mixed flash in 3 coler.Top fly is Pearl/Blue/Black. The 2 under is Red/Yellow/Pearl. First i tie in the Monofilament at the bend of the hook this wil be the weed guard. i make a couble of flyes ,normally 3 at the time.then i Epoxy the wrappings on mono.when dry i tie on the tail of flash.Epoxy the wrappings,let dry. Then make a loop vith the tying thread, insert the flash and spin.then wrap araund the body.Now tie in the monofilament infront of the flash body.Make a head ,Epoxy,put on eyes and Epoxy. thats it Tcr Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FrenchCreek 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2006 They look great. That much flash will surely attract big ones. Give us a report onn durability after you have caught a few pikers on them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kerusso 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2006 TCR, Â Those are some GREAT looking Pike flies! If, by chance, you should need someone to field test them for you, I'd be glad to oblige. I'm headed to the Boundary Waters in a couple of weeks for a couple of weeks and I would have ample opportunity to try them out for you . This, of course, would not cost you anything with the exception of the 6-8 flies you would send me to try out for you. Afterwards, I could rant ad nauseum about not only how good the flies performed but also what a generous person you are. :j_k: All kidding aside, those do look good; great tie!
