sean c Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Nice Cocry! What are you using for a collar on the first fly? I would tweak that fly a little I would either turn the dumbell eyes under the hook shank to ride hook down or flip the rabbit strip if I wanted it to ride hook up. I love the streamer in the second post nice job.
Cocry Posted September 9, 2011 Author Posted September 9, 2011 I just used Chinchilla Grizzly Zonker. And thanks for the good words!
Members TArcher Posted September 9, 2011 Members Posted September 9, 2011 So do you just tie up random flies/streamers or are you basing them off of a particular pattern? "There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home."
Cocry Posted September 9, 2011 Author Posted September 9, 2011 I really don't know anything about streamers except from kind of what I've seen from using them which has only been in the past month or so. I will watch a few vids online, but normally I just throw things together. I need to stop wasting my material and get a few of these in the water to see if they will actually work. As far as my flies, I normally just fish midges, scuds so that's what I tie.
Members TArcher Posted September 9, 2011 Members Posted September 9, 2011 That's cool. I was just wondering because I haven't seen some of the patterns your tying. They look good. Nothing wrong with tying up new patterns and color schemes. That's how we have all the choices we do now is from people tying new things and trying them. "There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home."
Cocry Posted September 10, 2011 Author Posted September 10, 2011 Well thanks for the good words!! I'm not going to say that these patterns aren't out there, because if they are, I just don't know. hahaha Hopefully I will get to try a few out tonight.
ozark trout fisher Posted September 11, 2011 Posted September 11, 2011 Nice! I bet the browns would go crazy for those down on the Current.
