How about some Warm Water Patterns?

There are other fish to tie flies for other than trout.

Here are some suggested species to see some productive patterns for:

* Muskie, Chain & Grass Pickerel, Walleye

* Smallmouth, Largemouth, & Spotted Bass

* Crappie, Bluegill, Redear Sunfish, Goggle Eye & such

* White Bass, Hybrids, & Stripers

* Carp, Catfish, & Suckers

I have heard of a fly called the "Crack Trout" has anyone else heard of this fly? If so what is the recipe?

the G-Bug is kind of an untouchable since the originator has never published the pattern, so noone seems willing to publish it either. But it isn't hard to duplicate. The ribbing is Ostrich, and you should have no difficulty with the rest.

Have a look at it here:

Hmm i thought there was copper wire for ribbing on that G-Bug.

I have been putting copper wire over my ostrich herl but I guess I will stop doing that.

I guess I shouldn't ask for a pattern that hasnt been published, I dont want to upset Brett, he is one of heck of a trout fisherman and guide.

What does it mean to be "published"? I thought it may be when someone submits a pattern to a fly company like Umpqua and they label it, make it and sell it. Example- John Wilson and trout crack.

Until a pattern is recognized by an official entity, it's just another pattern. If Bret doesn't hurry up, someone else it going to beat him to it.
