Kirk Dietrich 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2012 Love that Poor Man's Baitfish. Are the gills synthetic hair trimmed short? Nice ties, I'm sure Bob would be proud. Kirk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

agn54 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2012 Awesome flies, nyFLYguy05. Didn't the original popovics fly use silicone? I tink it's a great idea to substitute CCG, and probably a lot less messy. The poor man's baitfish is real sweet, it would work great around the baitfish pods down here that will be showing up soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nyFLYguy05 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2012 Thanks AGN! Yup thats the old silicone fly Pops made. He just came out with new flies using UV resigns. A lot quicker to use and definitley right about less messy! http://www.aswf.info/multimedia/flytying.html Check out this site - my favorite for patterns and tying videos. All Bobs stuff on here too! This is where I get a lot of my ideas and patterns from! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
