Guest Report post Posted November 14, 2011 I put this up to a vote and by a unanimous decision the members have decided it was better to have a monthly "Flies from the Vise" topic. So, here it is. Post a photo of a fly you have tied recently, feel free to add any info about the fly you want(why your tying it, material list, etc). Also, comments and questions to the tiers that post flies are encouraged as well. As a way to kick this thing off I'm going to give away 3 fly boxes to 3 randomly chosen members that post a fly to this topic. This new monthly format is only going to work with a decent amount of participation so jump in and have fun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mickalo 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2011 Well ok I guess I'll be the first to jump in. This fly I got from Peter Frailey's website. I'm a big fan of using natural materials so I tied up a few these to try out probably next season. I'm gonna send some to my son-in-law to try out too. It's called the Ausable Ugly Bugger. I use woodchuck and muskrat and a blended natural dubbing for the body. Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jan Korrubel 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2011 Noted the use of muskrat in Mike's Ausable Ugly Bugger above, so thought I'd put up somthing similar that's been very successful for me here in South Africa, stillwater in the bigger sizes (#8 / #6) and river/stream in the smaller sizes (#10 / #12): my rendition of Polly Rosborough's "Casual Dress" that I tie either with a bead or not. Only 2 main ingredients: muskrat for tail, body and collar, and ostrich herl for the head. Bead and any other weighting optional. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mickalo 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2011 I like that, nice variation, and simple. You just can't beat natural materials in my book. Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johny Utah 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2011 I twist these up for late fall, winter, and early spring fishing. They work great on a dead drift, with a rise at the end. Full tutorial, and material listing on my blog, Utah's Fly Corner Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fly Willy 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2011 Around Ottawa, Canada, we have to rely on our Smallmouth Bass and Walleye populations to get us through the year (we don't have many trout here). Come fall, big full slow moving Clouser minnows and Crays do the trick in the tailouts. There is a whole tying season left, adn tehre should be plenty coming off of my vise over the next few months.
