Rabbit Leech
Last week I did a detailed version of a bunny leech where I talked while tying the fly. It is more detailed however being such a simple fly, and knowing many of you like my refined tutorial style wit...
Simple Bunny Leech
This is about as simple as it gets for a streamer. In fact I would say its even easier than a wooly bugger to tie, and just as versatile.
Dusky Striped Minnow
A customer of mine asked for a imitation of something called a dusky stripped minnow. He sent me a few photos and I tried to copy it with a fly.
Harpeth River Tennessee in Winter
The area where I fished the Harpeth River is in Franklin Tennessee just south of Nashville. My parents live close to that area and I was out visiting them for Christmas.
Mini Deveiver
The Deceiver is one of the most popular, effective and iconic baitfish flies. It is a staple in most saltwater Fishermans boxes and for pike, bass, and even trout and other freshwater fish go after t...
Brush Minnow
The brush minnow is quite easy once you have the brush. As you could see, just tie in a tail and then wrap the brush, add eyes, and your done. Can't beat that for simplicity.
Gamechanger
I had an order for these two Gamechanger flies and figured I would bring you all along with me while I tie them.
Peaking Caddis Jig Fly
Most Caddis Fly species create casings that help protect them from predators and give them a cozy home to live in.
CDC Collared Caddis Jig
Caddis Pupa with collars are very effective flies for a number of rivers. Caddis are known to almost swim up to the surface when they are emerging, so trout tend to hit them hard in hopes that they d...
Mop Grub
Mop flies get a bad rap. They are thought of as too simple, or "cheating" by some. However I think there are ways to make simple and effective mop flies that aren't what I would call cheating.
Fishing with a Subscriber
Recently while fishing at a local river here in San Antonio Texas, I met a subscriber to the channel that offered to show me a few spots he likes going to.
Klinkhammer
Klinkhammer flies are Parachute flies that Hans van Klinken developed in the 80's where he bent the hook down to force part of the hook down in the water and more visible to the fish, also to look
Last Chance Cripple
Cripple flies are generally very big producing flies. They mimic an aquatic bug turning to adult form and trying to wiggle out of its shuck, but with a crippled wing.
Seaducer
I always thought of the Seaducer fly to be basically a saltwater Wooly Bugger. Maybe thats not being fair as it does hold some properties that make it slightly different.
Christmas Island Special
The Christmas Island Special is basically a crazy Charlie tied with craft fur and a flash tail and underwing. In fact in ways its easier and more simple to tie.
Fire Tiger
The most exciting way to fish for bass is with a popper. To watch them come up out of the water after a fly is absolutely exhilarating.
Large Frog Bass Popper
The most exciting way to fish for bass is with a popper. To watch them come up out of the water after a fly is absolutely exhilarating.
Crack Crab
The redfish crack is one of the go to patterns I fish with down in the gulf of Texas for fishing redfish.
Medina River after a drought
South Texas has had very little rain over the past 3 months which is very rare for the Summer months here. Many of the rivers were dried up, or had too little flow to fish.
EP Pinfish
Enrico Puglisi created the material known as EP fiber which is the base for tying this fly along with many other patterns similar to this.
Redfish Crack
The redfish crack is by far the pattern that gets put on the end of my fly rod the most when fishing for Redfish down in the Texas Gulf. This fly for some reason seems to always work.
EP Baitfish
Enrico Puglisi created the material known as EP fiber which is the base for tying this fly along with many other patterns similar to this.
Pats Rubber Legs
The Resin Tying Technique. Pat Bennett originally created the Pat's Rubber Legs which has turned into one of those patterns that is everywhere.
