Scott V 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2009 I am a big fan of Olive, but I also like pink. With that said I would be happy with either or if you feel you must, both. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rich5665 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2009 Either color is fine, I agree Blue Gills will eat just about anything. Besides a lot of Panfish Poppers are tied in Pink. I have a few that are Purple. Go with what you want, after all it's your fly have fun with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

breambuster 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2009 Hey, Pike-Hunter, I think that either color would be fine. I'm doing an olive damsel fly, but it is a different pattern from yours, so either color would be fine. Fliesandfish, I think the caddis pupa is a great choice. Go for it. Batman, check you PM box for the addy. Has anyone else actually mailed me your flies yet? I've sent the addy to a couple of people, but so far I haven't received any flies. Just wondering. :dunno: Take care BB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott V 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2009 I have yet to start tying flies myself. I am still putting in testing on various patterns. The problem is that all my bleugill action has been on top water, but I did go sub-surface for a little bit yesterday and did discover a couple of intersting things in regards to what I will be tying. I think I have a real good idea of what I'll be tying. So far I know it will be orange and somewhat small. I think it will be called "Mini Orange Crush".

breambuster 0 Report post Posted May 9, 2009 I have received flies from JohnR and Jared Sartini! Both sets are wonderfully tied. Awesome work, guys! JohnR and Fliesandfish, check your PM box. Flytire, I haven't seen the Clown Shoes pattern before, but I like the looks of it. That is a great thing about these swaps. I'm always learning new patterns from them, and with the materials list, you can duplicate the ones you like. Take care BB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
