Biot Stonefly

The stonefly is a staple food source for many trout around the world. Not all river systems or lakes have them in there, but when they are present, trout cannot turn down such a large meal.

The Bream Killer

The bream killer fly pattern was requested by one of my subscribers a while back. I decided to give it a go, and it seems like a pretty good pattern.

Swimming Finger Mullet

This fly I created because of a request from a Customer of mine who was buying my hand tied flies. He said he wanted something like a clouser minnow, but one that was colored like a finger mullet. N...

Kwan Fly

Kwan flys are a loose representation of a cross between a shrimp and a crab. They work great for saltwater fish that target Crustaceans.

Parachute Adams

The Adams fly is probably the most popular dry flies ever created, and the Parachute version of it isn't any different.

This day was a redfish record for me

The couple days before I had caught one Redfish in the slot size, and I hooked up to one undersized, and so did Johnny. However today was on fire! The reds were stirring like crazy!

Mini McCraw Fly

This is a crayfish fly I created to fish in South Texas. Here the bass love crayfish, especially small crawfish.

Corpus Redfish Fly Fishing

Another day, and a couple more reds! After years of heading down to corpus with horrible luck, finally I think I have figured out these reds.

McFly's Hook Worm

This red annelid fly has worked wonders for me on the San Juan River and other western tailwaters. I created it to be a slightly more flashy version of the texas midge which is a quite effective patt...

Bead Head Legged Hares Ear (but not really)

This rather simple and easy to tie nymph works great as imitating stonefly nymphs, dragonfly or damselfly nymphs and as an all around attractor pattern.

Rio Bandito Fly

The Rio Bandito fly was originally created by Chris from Living Waters Fly Shop in Round Rock TX. He designed it to fish for Rio Cichlids that are native to the waters around the hill country here. ...

Flash Winged Ant

This foam ant fly was requested from one of my customers to tie for him. He was fishing the San Juan River and wanted quite a few of them for the ant season. Size 16 in both brown and Black.

The Carp Bug

I had a customer ask me to tie a few of these carp bugs for him. They are fairly easy to tie, and seem like they would be effective.

Foam shrimp

After I found some flats on my last redfish trip, I decided to design a fly for that area. I wanted something light, and easy to cast.

Fly fishing the beach can be tough

Fly fishing in saltwater can be feast or famine. Its very difficult (at least for me) to consistently find fish.

Redfish all day long!

I was able to make another trip down to Corpus to fish for some redfish and finally hooked into a few. This trip I was able to land 4 redfish and hooked 5.

Clouser with Legs

Clouser Minnows are some of the most well known and fished streamers ever produced. Originally created by Bob Clouser, it has become a great streamer that works for just about any fish species that c...

How to tie the Gamechanger

The Gamechanger was originally created by Blane Chocklett and consists of multiple "spines" to make a moveable tail.

The Bully Bluegill Fly

The bully bluegill is one of my favorite flies to fish in still water situations. Fishing for species like bluegill or other sunfish, this fly seems to do the best.

Redfish, we found the perfect spot!

I finally hooked one of these amazingly powerful fish on the fly. It took off like crazy and ended up bending the hook I was fishing.

It's like a box of chocolates...

...you never know what you will catch.

Fly fishing anywhere has its risks, but fishing in the gulf has its own unique sets of safety challenges. Down in corpus there are alligators, sharks, flesh ...

Crabby Patty San Flea

I created this fly a while back inspired by a few flies I saw on instagram. I took aspects of a couple different flies, mainly a few from "sand bar flies" and created my own pattern with some ideas I...

LW Reel Review

I am someone who doesn't like to spend a ton of money on my fly fishing gear. However I still want a high quality reel or rod, that will perform for me when it needs to.

Baby Blue Crab with Claws

This fly pattern is one a customer of mine asked me to tie for them. They sent a picture and I went from there.
