creekhound 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2011 Nice gill was that your articulated fly or the strait body? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCream 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2011 Nice gill was that your articulated fly or the strait body? This one was non-articulated, but I added a large glass rattle to each side of the shank. And dang that thing is loud! I am pretty sure this was a hybrid green sunfish. The yellowish border on the fins is usually a giveaway that it's a hybrid.

TheCream 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2011 Where do I buy? i'd like one Or an SBS I'd do a SBS or video, but I'm out of rattles! It's basically the same as the articulated SBS version of this same pattern, only not articulated and I added a large glass rattle to each side of the shank before tying in the foam or Ice Chenille. I wrapped the heck out of the rattles then cemented over them very heavy to make sure they can't (or shouldn't) pop loose. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
