Head: Bright red and dark purple chenille. Love the JWB's! I've tied over 20 variations of this fly to represent various warm and cold water species - trout family, bass/sunfish family, and baitfish. Ever try substituting marabou for the bucktail? Works really nice on the size 10 and smaller hooks. Most are tied with an upper (darker) color of bucktail "halo" and a lighter lower color (white, yellow or what the fish calls for) "halo". Harry's site also has his The Ghost pattern as well. That inspired me to tie The Black Knight (black on black on black with silver Krystal Flash) and the Midnight Martini (black abdomen, olive/dark olive bucktail - the brown died dk. olive looks nice + 2 strands silver flash, and dark olive head ). I figure these will be nice for low light/evening fishing. I'm thinking of giving the Martini a red nose for a hot spot - just for some fun!

Philly 0 Report post Posted February 15, 2021 Just finishing up tying some bass bugs. Some in the last group still need legs. First up, Meade's Gutless Frog. A new fly for me this year. It's supposed to be weedless. I'll have to fish it to see if it is. Hook: Ahrex Trout Predator Long 2/0 Body: 6 mm foam strip Legs: Silicone Skirt Layers Eyes: 7 mm Living Eyes Colors: Permanent Markers Tony's Froggie. Normally I tie it on size 6 2xl for pan fish Hook: Ahrex Trout Predator Long 2/0 Body: 6 mm foam strips, White and Yellow Tail: Marabou to match fly color Legs: Silicone Skirt Layers Eyes: 7 mm Living Eyes Colors: Permanent Marker on the Fluorescent Yellow on the top row. The fly really doesn't have a name. The initial template was the soft foam spider bodies you can buy on line. Another super sized pan fish fly I normally tie on a size 6 2xl. Hook: Ahrex Trout Predator Long 2/0 Body: 6 mm foam piece, arrow head shape Tail: Marabou to match fly color Legs: Silicone Skirt Layers Eyes: 7 mm Living Eyes Colors: Permanent Marker on the Fluorescent Yellow on the top row. For lack of a better name I calls this one the Heart Popper. Based on a foam pattern shown to me by Harrison Steeves, instead of the head being glued to the sides of the body, I left them open. I still need to add legs on some of them. Has a bit of a Jitterbug action when retrieved with a steady strip. Hook: Gamakatsu B10S stinger hook, size 4 Body: Heart shaped piece of 2 mm craft foam Tail: Marabou to match fly color Legs: Silicone Skirt Layers Eyes: 6 mm Living Eyes Colors: Permanent Markers. The bottom row has permanent markers over silver and gold Art Deco transfer foil. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
