This fly is a very versatile pattern. It was created by Matt Bennet to fish Rio ciclids.
The Llano bug from what I was told was designed and developed for a river called the Llano River.
Hopefully you guys saw my video on the large “Texas sized” grasshopper. This hopper was created for bass and is a very large hopper pattern.
Hey guys! So this is the first time fishing in a while. I had to wait to get my Texas fishing license, which I finally got last week and now I’m back fishing, but in a brand new area!
Unfortunately Lefty Kreh passed away last year, but his memory lives on with this (and many other) amazing fly patterns.
Don’t want to take time loading a bobbin with thread? Do you have some quality UV resin sitting around? Boom! You have the ability to tie up a fly.
The last time I went to Oceanside and fished in the surf I had some trouble getting any bites. I fished all day with nothing. But this time was different!
I wanted to tie a surf candy, but with a little weight. However I didn't want to use dumbbell eyes, or a cone head as that will change the look of the head of the fly.
Oceanside harbor is a great place to hang out, fun eateries and great coffee! However the beach is also a nice place to fish. And there are jetties and piers that you can fish here as well.
A few weeks ago, a customer of mine sent me a picture of a shrimp that he wanted me to tie for him. I had never seen this style shrimp before but gave it a go.
This is a classic fly, that has been tied by guides and used by the masses for years.
The Zug bug is a fly that works really well, however it doesn't seem to resemble any particular bug specifically. Not sure really what it is supposed to mimmic.
This fly was originally created by Lance Egan, and is one of the best attractor patterns Ive ever fished. It's flashy, bright, and effective.
So this is the conclusion, or 2nd day to my trip to Dolores Colorado, which was absolutely amazing!
Crayfish, or also called crawdads are a common food source for many freshwater fish, especially bass. But in rivers and lakes where trout get predatory, they will also eat crayfish as well.
This was one of the most fun trips I've had in a long time. Such a wide range of fish species to catch! From Salmon running up stream, to brown and rainbow trout.
A few months ago I tied up a fly called the Brahma Bugger, which I did not invent but loved fishing and tying the fly very much!
The Royal Wulff is a great fly, except its really difficult to tie in those calf tail wings. But I have come up with an easier way, that I think actually is better.
On this trip I met up with RXflyfishing from Instagram. He has a great instagram channel, and I was excited to fish the creeks and streams I see him fish all the time on his account.
The full back, flash back, bead head, Pheasant Tail (wow thats a mouthful)... Is a great fly!
Lets be honest, fly fishing is an expensive sport. If you want quality gear, you have to pay high prices. In fact, this is a world where a $400 fishing rod is considered a bargain.
These can be tied up very quickly, which is rare to find effective streamer patterns that you can tie so quickly.
Well this was an amazing trip! I did not put all the fish I caught in the video, because the video would have been way too long.
The hares ear is a fly that has been around for ages, however its still as effective today as it was over a century ago. The simplicity is really what makes this fly so popular.
