New Warm water Fly Fishing Pattern for Smallmouth & Panfish
http://myworld.ebay.com/riverwalker74
Just found out Bret Bielema from Wisconsin is accepting the open coaching position at Arkansas . . . I guess that's cool. Not impressed but not let down . . . too much. Anyways, just tied up this pattern for bass and panfish. It's pretty similar to my Juicy Foam Flies. I'm pretty sure it's gonna be productive.
Just listed this fly on ebay . . . will probably sell sometime soon. I'm evaluating some fly fishing goals for next year. One goal I've already set is to catch 100 panfish - good sized panfish - possibly just bluegills or warmouth. Another is to hit more lakes and ponds for larger bass . . . and to do some more float trips for smallmouth.
It's always nice to sit down and throw some materials together. Sure, I didn't go too far outside the box but I'm happy with this pattern. I dug out some Elk hair or possibly a deer tail . . . will be incorporating it into more flies. I think if I can use more hair, maybe I can move more flies on ebay.
If anyone is interested in any of my patterns, I am more than happy to send a few your way.

That's a good lookin' bug. I think the hair makes the flies look a lot fancier and should help your sales.

ReplyDeleteArkansas should have gone after Gus Malzon at Arkansas State, before Auburn hired him this afternoon. I have never heard of the guy Arkansas hired, hope he turns out to be a good hire for you guys. You and I will be going after the 100 bluegills together this next year. I didn't make it last year but hope for better results this year. Glad you are doing the count should be fun keeping up with each others tally.
I guess Miles, Saban and Meyer are from the Big 10 too. Maybe this guy will pan out.
DeleteI like it. I have a small creek here that would kill on.
