They are excellent flies! And black is such a great color for Rios, or pretty much anything swimming around here in Texas. Super underrated. Thanks for sharing. Texas Freshwater Fly Fishing (www.texasfreshwaterflyfishing.com) is running the Year of the Rio contests this year, so you should definitely submit the pictures of your Rio for that.
@@texasfreshwaterflyfishing5113 i submitted a pic last time period. unfortunately we have been having so much rain all the creeks and bayous are flowing too fast. i hope to get a few caught real soon. thanks!
Haha, yeah. I have several bobbins now. That was the very first one I ever got, and it was like that from the start. I didn't know it was wrong, so I just used it and found ways to make it useful. I now know "better" but still use that old piece of junk!
i tied up a few of these in black and proceeded to catch a few rio's. caught bass and sunfish too. thanks!
