Going back to my roots with these bass poppers. I used to fish for largemouth every day of the summer as a kid, day dreaming about trout streams. I never thought I'd say it, but living in trout country for the past 15 years has really made me sick of fishing for trout! Now I'm driving an hour plus to fish for bass and carp when I have several trout lakes and rivers within a 5 mile drive of my house!

It's the Australian iconic Murray Cod ( freshwater fish) recorded at 113 kg in weight

Most fishos use large lures and bait but they can be caught on large flies

These days they are mostly catch and release .post-37956-0-44727700-1467686078_thumb.jpeg

Jumbo Mysis

I was asked to tie a larger version of my Mysis. Finally
found something to substitute for the CDL, wild boar.
It is actually better than the CDL because it is thicker
and keeps the abdomen rounder. The end splits naturally,
is cream colored and easier to thread into the standard tubing.
