Twofingerz 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2007 practice practice practice i recieved the olive colored Butt Monkey @ Nov. Guys Flies and Pies from Alex and have been trying to do a few. The mallard collar really kicked MY butt but after an e-mail or two i think i am getting closer to figuring it out olive one is not mine, the rest are. wish i had decided i was going to tie one in chartreuse before i tied in the brown tail LOL.

Twofingerz 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2007 i had no idea who it was but a quick check on Kelly Galloups site came up with this quote... "This fly was designed by Scott Smith of Thunderbay Ontario for giant brook trout." http://www.scottearlsmith.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruce Derington 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2007 The 1st. set of flies are interesting. They may impart better action if the heads were trimmed flat on the top and bottom :dunno: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
