Justin Spencer Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 If I tied 'regular' Woolies anymore, I would have a Marabou tail and Polar Chenille body...that's it. Wouldn't that make it an irregular wooly?

fishinwrench Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 Wouldn't that make it an irregular wooly? No, it would make it a sub-standard "Sparkle Minnow".
Brian Wise Posted February 16, 2014 Author Posted February 16, 2014 No, it would make it a sub-standard "Sparkle Minnow". So the Sparkle Minnow is solid enough of a pattern by itself that it can have a spin - off that is considered "sub-standard"? Hilarious. My Youtube Channel

Well Yeah! When Coffey first introduced it a lot of guys were attempting to copy it with eztaz and marabou.....THAT is/was "sub-standard".....didn't work. Where were YOU back in the day? I guess we hadn't invented you yet
Brian Wise Posted February 18, 2014 Author Posted February 18, 2014 I had an extra 30 seconds this morning so I thought I would introduce the "SS-Minnow" (the idiot tyer forgot the bead though....because he sucks). Obviously, in the water it would look and fish completely different than a Sparkle Minnow and fish are completely smart enough to tell the difference in the two patterns (mostly because I forgot the bead). Did I lay the smartassery on thick enough, Wrench? My Youtube Channel
fishinwrench Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 That thing looks kinda "limp". I dunno, it might fish Seriously though, there really is something about spun "angel hair" or "Lite-bite". No chenilles or dubbing brushes that I have seen so far cause the fly to turn out right. Maybe "right" isn't the proper term.... "The Same". And I'm just crazy picky that way You can't tell me that if a Pat's looses a single rubber leg that you won't swap that bad boy out before you make another cast.

Actually, I have cut SO MANY antennae off of Pats when I cut my thread....still fish them. Drives me crazy right that second, but then I remember that fish can't count. My Youtube Channel
fishinwrench Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 That is some kind of ninja self-control thing you've got going on there. I'm impressed. I get so anal sometimes that it causes my breath to stink.

Geoff Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 HMM I might have to tie that for snook this spring haha "When you do things right, people wont be sure you've done anything at all."
