#59-2013 Bobby - Steve Labrecque #59-2013 Bobby - Steve Labrecque

Tied by: Steve Labrecque
Originated by: Bob BiBeau
Source: Tandem Streamers by Donald A. Wilson, - Pg. 100

Hook: Tandem rig (#4 Mustad 3399 hook up front, #4 rear hook being connected with wire cable)
Thread: Red
Body: Red thread (floss used on single)
Rib: Silver flat tinsel
Wing: Sparse red bucktail under white bucktail under green bucktail under black bucktail
Head: Red
Eye: Yellow with black pupil painted

Notes: The Bobby is a pattern tied in the typical Bob Bibeau style, tandem, colourful and sparsely dressed. The pattern was named for Bob and Frances' son Bob Jr. Back in the 1980's Steve had a gig netting smelts in the springtime and Bob Bibeau was among his customer base. The fly is a great pattern to troll during the darker days on Lake Sebago.

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
