Schooling bait on one hook...First attempt!

Recommended Posts

I must first admit that I am tying the hell out of certain flies and I am getting really comfortable at them (Pheasant Tail, Elk Hair, RS2, Humpys, even some Adams).

 

However, I thought that my basic skills from PHWFF classes were not able to make a fly I had never tied!

 

Three weeks ago I found a mentor through the Healing Waters program that teaches every week and goaded me into pushing my limits.

 

SOOOO.....here is my first attempt at a "Schooling Bait".....

I did not have the materials but was graciously loaned some.

 

I was encouraged to be creative and "out of the box" from what I normally tie and this is what I came up with....

Wow!!! That's definitely "out-of-the-box". They look good.

Is that one bent hook from eye to point, or is there some other material holding the two bait fish together?

Cool pattern! I am very curious about the hook -- if you get a chance, please post the recipe. I'm sure a lot of us would like to try one of these. Nice work!
