I love this fly SO MUCH. It is incredibly fun to tie and I love how colorful I can make it. Thanks for the easy to follow video!
Way cool. Your videos have improved my tying ten fold. Thank you. Fish on!!
Just tied this fly. Great video and pattern
A killer pattern for sure! I placed second on a local panfish fly fishing tournament using this fly last year. Will be joining the tournament again and will make sure I have a bunch of this in different colors.
Very well explained and love the close ups. this is a very helpful video. Thank you for sharing.
Great tie , great video.
I Love this Fly! Works great for Crappie! Or, as they're more commonly called in my area, Sac-a-Lait.
I'm going to try tying up a larger version, for Saltwater.
I humbly ask of you, please make a video of a larger, saltwater version.
I just started tying flies and this was my first pattern to tie. I have done 1 in size 6 per your instructions and followed with 4 more in size 10. Thanks for putting out these and other instructional videos!
I watched this video when you first posted it and tied up a bunch. It's a killer pattern for sure, my go-to for panfish. Was catching so many small mouth bass on it that I've started tying larger versions for them. The jigging action works well but this past season I've found that using 28 awg copper wire to cover the hook shank and bead chain eyes allows the fly to sink more slowly (in a horizontal attitude) is catching more fish. Think that it lands and strips/glides more like a crayfish. For deeper water I use lead-free wire instead of copper for weight. Olive is my first choice but all white, all black and chartreuse are good as well.
Im gonna tie some up in copper orange for carp this spring
i usually just use the fluff from the sides of wooly bugger marabou and bead chain on a #10 or #12 nymph hook to tie a microscopic clouser ~ an inch long, with ice dub instead of krystal flash to give it shimmer. it fishes well, and i've gotten bluegill, perch, crappie, and even largemouth bass up to 2 pounds on the little thing. its a great trailer if you're fishing a popper and it's getting attention but not commitment
" tie a microscopic clouser ~ an inch long" Yup, tie something similar to what you're describing - I use a 1/8" wide, 1/2" long piece of rabbit zonker strip as a wing. Catch all kinds of panfish and a lot of smallmouth bass that are feeding on small minnows early in the summer.
very nice
Love the vids soooooo much
Ps you deserve way more subscribers
Thank you
Just got done tying a few of these with some slightly different named materials. Time to hit the river and see if the bluegill and small mouth like the pattern!
I have questions about this fly for bluegill. However, I love the look of this fly. And I am thankful for all of your great tying videos. In my experience, bluegill feed off the bottom far less than they do looking up. If I were to use a jig fly, it would be suspended under an indicator fly, high enough that bluegill would be looking up. Therefore a heavy wire hook would be detrimental and make the indicator fly sink. Heavy wire is also not needed for bluegill of any size. So for this fly I can only assume that the the idea was that it contributed weight to the already weighted pattern. Even if I thought bluegill were commonly bottom feeders, I would have used a light wire hook for better penetration and to allow for less weight needed to flip the hook point up. That would make for easier casting and less splash. Last, a size 6 hook is too big for all but giant bluegill. Especially when the size 6 is a jig hook. Even good size bluegills have small mouths. The way this pattern is tied looks perfect for carp and I would assume bass would take it for a baby craw or dragonfly nymph. I may tie some for that reason.
Nearly all fish are looking down, bluegills included. In the spring and summer, when flies start hatching and hoppers jumping, you'll get some looking up due to easy opportunities. Most bedding bluegills that are caught are the young bucks not getting to spawn, so they feed.
@@joshhigdon4951 Thanks the reply!
I've noticed that all the big bluegill I catch " and I catch alot" tend to feed heavy off the bottom...most of my weighted patterns I fish off the bottom with a very slow retrieve. Almost dragging it across the bottom. I'm not being arrogant either I just fish a lot for panfish on the fly...
@Donald Burleyson Good info. I guess I will have to tie this fly ss shown and see what happens.
😳 Damn!
Since this is a jig, should it be fished under an indicator or a popper to keep it floating?
would this be a good carp fly?
I’m trying to make a variation on this pattern but in a heavier weight. I’m looking for around 1/32 ounce if possible. I think this bait would be killer as a jig for multi species fishing.
Nice. Is there a lead substitute for the eyes?
You might try a stonefly nymph head evolution bead (by Flymen Fishing), and paint the eyes a contrasting color. Be warned, they are expensive. I have never seen tungsten dumbell eyes. Strike that; Ebay has them in 4mm and 4.8mm - I just checked.
This kinda looks like it might even work for carp!
i'd fish one for carp
My thought exactly!
Very similar to rainys carp tease fly. I've used the carp tease in smaller sizes for panfish and they work great. I've also tied this fly and it works the same. Great pattern for lots of fish!
How much for a pack of 3
What kind of bluegill eat a size 6 fly? I would atleast tie this in size 10...
I have had Bluegill hit Bass Poppers and flies that were 1/2 their body size. They are eating machines!
You have to see this particular hook, the size 6 in this hook is not that large. It is pretty much the equal of a size 10. The other good thing about the size of this hook is the Bluegill will not swallow it deep.
You will notice that there is a lot of unused hook shank there. The size six gives you a bigger gap, but realize that a standard 1/32 oz. jig usually has a #6 hook. The actual body of the fly is probably similar to that of a #10 wet fly, with somewhat longer tails.
I've recently caught sunfish on squarebills.
I think sometimes, if they're spawning, they may not be 'eating,' but pestering the lure, trying to chase away an intruder from their eggs.
I don't think size 6 is to big, I regularly use size 6 poppers for sunnies.
This fly would be deadly for crappie.
I also ty some flies and i am ten
Mac Gravley it so cool that you are getting started so early, good luck going forward brother!!
Well done young man keep tying and always keep an open mind to different patterns.
Same here! I even do videos on them, but they aren't nearly as good as tim's
