Those are awesome!

Nice tutorial and good looking fly!! So the UV glue makes the head color?
-
Yes. I've also used them in the creek/rivers with a standup head. I remember reading at article from the Yamamoto newsletter once about 1/2 oz football heads. I don't bass fish much in the winter, so my experience would be spring and summer. But I imagine you've forgotten more about bass fishing than I even know, but it's one of my confidence baits for what it's worth.

I've done well on them. Dragging or hopping them with a big jig head. But I don't know much, especially compared to you.
-
What's the body, btw?
-
Awesome. I'm tying up some beetles. Headed to RR Monday with some co-workers.
-
Oh man. That's rough!
-
Nice! it's fun to fill up a box with something hand crafted. Looking forward to the end results!

Excellent. I'm stocked on eggs. He got into b/c of me, so I feel a responsibility to produce. The problem is that I am a mediocre fly fisherman....
-
Can I ask what you were using? Taking a 1st-timer on 3/14 and would love any tips. Thanks for the report!

I got the Brad Pitt formula. It's a little uncomfortable, but I can feel my jaw squaring in the last few weeks. I hope I can cast like his stuntman....

That's our general assumption most of the time, isn't it?

Is that SEMO? Congratulations to the Shot family. That's awesome and that field is in demand.

Ron and I fished the mid lake on Bull Shoals on Monday 2/21

Wow! Nice fish -
I think the mill dam has been removed completely. I don't know how passable it is via jet boat. I feel like @Gavin has posted about it in the past?

I don't know of the biology and behavior of the dace. I was just playing off the traditional Black Nose Dace bucktail streamer. I was thinking of something that I could fish in high water at the tailwater, Powersite for whites or deep holes in the spring. I've got lead wire in addition to the cone, so it should sink fairly horizontally. It may not catch fish, but it's a great outlet for my creative energy. You're right in that I could have definitely lived with leaving the hook shank with bare lead.

Just playing around. It's heavily lead-wrapped. I think it's a size 6 aberdeen? Green and white craft fur, red thread for gills. Made a couple with peacock herl bodies and the first was with tinsel. My tinsel was so narrow that I was too impatient to do it again.

Pizza Hut.

Whoever your source was sucks. They sang several songs before the game started including the National Anthem by a black female country music artist no less. (Never thought I'd type that phrase.) To piggy back off someone, Chris Collinsworth is absolutely horrible. It was like playing Madden. Half his comments seemed canned and completely unrelated to what was happening on the field. As a broken-hearted Rams fan, I hope Kroenke dies of stomach cancer, but only after he writes the 950 million dollar check to StL for screwing the fans there.

TRDs are the best. Really sturdy and really floaty.

That's the name of my bluegrass band. Big Dead Gar

At least, that's what they told me when I found out she was 16. ba-da-bump.
-
Psshht. Age is just a number. Granted, a meaningful number, but still....
-
That's so exciting for you. And she gets out next week!
-
Looks great. You are well on your way.
