ok.....2nd row....2nd fly...this is one of Kelly Galloup's creations.....Swimmin Jimmy...1st hook(head) 1/0.....stacked deer hair, olive/white....bend hook 30 degrees down.....trim head so it lays sideways like an injured baitfish.....olive marabou, white marabou and a little peach in the middle.....second hook...size 6.....olive and white marabou...I attach the hooks with wire with 3 red glass beads in between...I hope you guys can follow this...I'm sure my explanation sounds ridiculous....

the 2nd row, 3rd group bottom....that is a clouser foxee redd minnow.....size 6 hook.....lead eyes, gold flash.....cream coloered red fox tail, black tipped red fox hair....

most of the other flies are variations on clouser minnows...I use saddle hackle on the tails of all my clousers along with bucktail...I like the movement and the bulk.....glad you all enjoyed them....
