Baron 0 Report post Posted May 21, 2021 Hi Sandan, The yellow spinner is what the guides were handing out on the Green last yr just below the FG Dam. Also Yellow Sallies. These all seem like pretty universal patterns as I also use them for Gills and Pumpkinseed, on summer evenings, here in PA. What size ants would you recommend. It seems I used 16 last year on the green and got the most attn on the cinnamon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's more information there than you'll know what to do with. Go to the video gallery. Check out the honey ant video. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They seem very much in touch. Very nice site I thought. Its funny, I avoided the flaws because I'd not ever heard of them. I'll add them. It may also be the one I buy upon arrival.

If they're coming off you'll want some Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I lost one to a tree and then tied on a woolly bugger. Speaking of...had to tie some more tonight to replace the ones I have lost over the last few weeks 😒.
