Hey FlySmallie - Might Like This

Flysmallie... I watched this for the prince nymph, but I thought you might like the variation of the woolly.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kldpL44ClLs&list=PL7f6qwpeGf5TN4cIUT-2S3aHjY3NHYWy_&index=12

Leroy is a cool cat.   Sometimes I think he would have liked to punch Engerbretson in the throat.

Hey I remember when that show used to come on the local PBS Channel. Might still but I don't know. Those guys are a little too "elite" for me.

Good looking brown bugger. Did they say big? That fly is not big. I'm not a fan of boogers for smallmouth though and I'd be afraid to fish that one and fish the river out. That would suck.

But I do like boogers for trout. Not much more fun can be had than swinging a wooly booger across the top of the rebar hole on Taney. Man that's some fun stuff when it's right.

 

Thanks Mic.

I know you like your top water.  What do you throw under the water for smallies?

That looks like a lure, not a fly.  

Looks pretty fishy.  Do you fly fish for smallies in the winter?

That looks like a lure, not a fly.    Why? Because it has rubber legs? It's really no different than a clouser except for materials.

Looks pretty fishy.  Do you fly fish for smallies in the winter?  No. There are other fish way more willing to eat a fly during the winter.

To me fly fishing for smallmouth includes shorts and t-shirts. After that there are more effective methods to catching them or you can just fish  for trash fish. You know, trout.
