FlatzFatz 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2010 The warm water guys inspired me with their Craw creations. BigDaddyHub found some Swiss Straw, got me to thinking... Will try a few more to before I upload the pattern. Critical critiques welcome. Thanks...dave No Fish Lipps Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Legg 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2010 Man, that is a beautiful fly! I'd love to see how that moves on the water. Have you been able to test it out yet? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlatzFatz 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2010 Thanks Dave, Just tied it last night and the weather looks crappy today, hoping sunday looks better. It's supposed to act like a fleeing shrimp, the lip will give it a darting motion towards the top when striped...you can also skitter it across the surface. I found the website while surfing shrimp patterns www.flylipps.com , can't wait to see how they work. Will let you know...dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Futzer 0 Report post Posted February 27, 2010 Very nice Shrimp, I am anxious to here how effective it is. I have been playing with flylipps on damsel nymphs and scuds, by cutting them down. Have not gotten a good trip to use them yet. Lately been too busy with work. I might add a little glow in the dark materials in the body.
