I have tied a very similar pattern. It is simple to tie and very productive fly in my box. Seeing a bass or pan fish take the fly...well, that never gets old.
Hi,Matt and Happy New Year. Nice, fun bug for panfish, which we have lots of down here. My name for it would be the Champagne Popper. Thanks for another fun video.
In honor of New Years with bottle popping champagne and the best water to fish for panfish, “foamy water.” I would call it, “Foamy Homie.” Matt, thanks for the great videos! Im excited to get my family involved in the contest!
Kyle- congrats! If you didn't see the results, the community voted this name as their favorite. Send me an email and I'll get the gift card to you. matt@savageflies.com
ERAL said “Lemmon Drop” and I agree. The Bass and Bluegill love yellow poppers. I think this is going in my fly box. Thank you Matt and Happy New Year.
Happy New Year Matt. This thing is going to pack fish into your creel. With this being mainly green and yellow. The fact that I’m from Wisconsin and a Packers fan. Also the b(ass) kicking the Vikings took last night. I’m going with “The Packer Popper Plopper”. 🤷♂️
Since tormenting panfish is what I do most these days, I can see this is gonna be a great year! Given the fact I'm seeing it on New Year's Day (After the NYE parties), I'm thinking "Hair of the Dog" is fitting. (LOL! You might have to explain that one to your fellow judges.) Thanks and Happy New Year!
I may be dating myself a bit, but based on the colors of this one and the recent passing of one of the greatest soccer players ever, I'd call this one the "Pele Popper". Looking forward to another year of Name the Fly Contests.
Hope your you & your family had a good Christmas and happy new year, looking forward to many new videos this year. I'd call this one "New years lightning bug"
Happy New Year Matt. I hope it will be a good year for the channel and all of your fellow fly tiers. I like the pattern, I have no panfish to use it on but if I did, I would definitely want this in my box. I'll call it "New Start Bug". Happy fishing!
Good morning Matt. ☕️time. Looking at that fly I’m thinking it’s a new year and everyone starts out with New Year’s resolutions that are often short lived. I’m going with “Good Intentions”. Neat bug and enjoy these contests. Take care Matt. Need a ☕️reload.
Good one John! And I'm happy to say, my resolutions are still intact. Except for walking on my hands. I'm going to learn to do that in 2023. And I haven't yet started. :-)
Hey Matt, color me aquateuse but your bug looks like a LIME TICK POPPER for 2023. Looks fun so it will be my fly TO TIE for next week. Have à safe and adventurous new year.
Happy New Year!!! Hope it's a great one for you and your family. I have no idea what to call this one... but since has sparkle and I think of bass fishing in summer...lemonade popper???
The "Incredible Hulk"😤🤢 Bluegills don't wanna make this fly mad! You and your family have a blessed New Year Matt! Great tie, kinda like a Micro Gurgler, Steve @blackflycreations
Hey Matt Happy New Year to you and your family.Hope it is a great one for you and my wife and I are looking forward to some great patterns this year.For this one maybe “Matt’s Hangover Helper”as it’s always better out on the stream or lake than lamenting you should not have done what you did!
May the new year bring tight lines, uncrowded waters and memories of both with friends and family. I think this fly should be called "Drop The Hop". In honor of the ball drop for New Years eve on t.v. every year. The Hop part of the name is it reminds me of a grasshopper.

Hahaha, you're right there Garrett. My kids will have no idea. Maybe I'll play that Nazareth song for them. :-)
A very happy new year to you Matt. Just back from a week in Rome with my wife and the kids so wishing you and the fly the Dolce Vita.
Wow, I'll bet that was a great trip! Christmastime in Italy would be a blast. :-)
I may be dating myself a bit, but based on the colors of this one and the recent passing of one of the greatest soccer players ever, I'd call this one the "Pele Popper". Looking forward to another year of Name the Fly Contests.
Oh you and me both Deake! I was a kid of the 80s and I remember the great Pele. I didn't realize he recently passed away though.
Happy new year !! awesome little bug there. excited to see what you do this year.

Happy New Year, Matt! I think a good name for it would be the
"Lemon Lime Skipper"
Nice one Logan! And a "skipper" describes it well. :-)
Nice fly. They'll eat it. Given all the New Year's resolutions about losing weight and such, I'd call that fly "Bluegill's New Diet"
Nice one Kevin!

I would call it the Mello Yello bug!
Happy New Year Matt 🎉
Matt’s Lil’Hopper. Happy New Year! It’s too cute for my other name ideas. It actually is a good design.
Hahaha. Somehow I've never been able to name a fly after myself. But the Lil' Hopper works. :-)
Happy New Year to you & your family, Matt! Here's to a healthy, happy 2023! How about "The Mountain Dew"? Have a great rest of the week!
Thanks Tim! I like it but we've got to be careful not to infringe on trademarked names. In case the fly does well and I put it in a book someday. :-)
Happy New Year, Matt! How about the "NYE Wish Bug"
Hey Matt Happy New Year to you and your family.Hope it is a great one for you and my wife and I are looking forward to some great patterns this year.For this one maybe “Matt’s Hangover Helper”as it’s always better out on the stream or lake than lamenting you should not have done what you did!
Matt Thanks for the great videos. How about the “lemon brim gitter”.
I think the "Yellow Cub" sounds fun cause it would smash the fish. Lol
Happy New Year Matt.
Thanks Brian! And you too my friend. :-)
Happy New Year! I looked at the colors and thought "Super Sonic." Probably the only one, though!
Yep Tom, I think you're the only one who said Super Sonic. But I like it. :-)
Happy new year Matt. Looking forward to this series. How about calling this one "the resolver"
Oh, this is kind of cool Brian! Kind of a mix between Resolution and Revolver. :-)
Happy New Year everyone! Looks like a "champagne toast" kind of fly to me.
Nice one Denise! I like it. :-)
Key Lime Pan Pie Fly
May the new year bring tight lines, uncrowded waters and memories of both with friends and family. I think this fly should be called "Drop The Hop". In honor of the ball drop for New Years eve on t.v. every year. The Hop part of the name is it reminds me of a grasshopper.
Nice one Joe! I kind of dig it. :-)
The yellow made me think of the kitchen sponge my mom always used. So "mom's kitchen sponge" would be my name
Oh man, this is funny! I might have to go grab a sponge from under my kitchen sink and see what I can make out of it. :-)
My first thought was "Kermit." Lol
Nice one Misty! I like it. :-)
