Members ckjacks Posted September 21, 2006 Members Posted September 21, 2006 When should I start throwing egg flies, is it too early in the year?
timsfly Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 Egg patterns will work all year long, but sept-march I seem to have my best luck at taney, I use them here at Roaring River all year long, and catch some pretty big fish on egg patterns, I tie them as small as #22's and as big as a #6 for taney. Good luck. Tim Homesley 23387 st. hwy 112 Cassville, Mo 65625 Roaring River State park Tim's Fly Shop www.missouritrout.com/timsflyshop

Wayne SW/MO Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 The Johnson's in Baldwin MI. had a neat double egg pattern. I could never tie it, but it was effective. Phil, do you know the one I'm talking about? The one with one egg tied on mono? Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
jOrOb Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 I really like the unreal egg pattern. You can find the recipe posted here. It has a bead, so it stays close to the bottom, and if tied with antron or something similar, is pretty tough. Plus it is easy to tie. jOrOb "The Lord has blessed us all today...
