Usually size 10 or 12, if going for monsters probably size 8.
thanks guys they both were made with #4 bream hooks
They both look good to me, that second one looks "to kill"
i love'em both they look really good man!
well it looks like a warm weekend for a change. i hope to be hitting a local pond here in town 2mrow i will be breaking in a 3wt ultra light fly rod. if the bream or crappie are feeding i hope to land a few with it.
This is the group for Southeast anglers to talk about catching monster bluegill.
yeah i know what you mean its finally warm again in savannah and if it dont rain 2mrow i am going fishing. either on ft stewart or lake mayer
What size hooks did you use?
Good looking fly on pic 22. I tied something similar last spring and was slaying the gills with them. Best color here seemed to be hot pink or purple estez with black marabou tail. Good luck with it!
good looking bugs Robert.
gators good boots,and good sause
this is nice nd wat were u talkin bout when u said u messed up. man both of those flys look good nd I think i will give them a gander or two, eh
i know most of you do not tie on #4s,i like them beacuse they allow me to tie a thicker body ,and leave enough hook gap for good hookups.
if you are useing a 4wt it is hard to roll a #4 fly,but you will be suprised how many small fish you can hook o…

Thank you very much for that info, BC! My usual spot out there (and they only one I know, really) is Bethany Reservoir, up near the wind farms, a mile or 2 west of Clifton Court Forebay. It has loads of bluegill and I caught a 9" redear last time I…
Is this a rock bass or a type of bream?
My nephew asked me a question are goldfish edidable? I could not say.
I have seen one goldfish about the size of a small carp around 17 inches.
Beautiful fish! A Gillzilla!
Hey , I'm a flyroder and use crickets all the time , about the only time I use artificial flys is when I run out of crickets or I'm fishing for smallmouths. The only limitation is it's harder to fish deeper than your flyrod is long but it is possibl…
Yes they are Jim. The lower fish wasn't near the work of the top one.
Will somebody get me some distilled water! I just licked my screen! Thats one awsume lookin fly! Like boggie man said it must be a labor of love because just like his other suggestion. I just use live crickets on a fly rod! HAHA! I wish I coulda see…
Ive got a tackle box full! I love the bitsy minnow. There awsume. I was fishing with my dad and he was casting a bitsy minow while I was draggin crickets. I was embarresed when he was over 20 gills ahead. I had to swallow my pride and ask to borrow…
Cool you fly fish?
Although I usually fish for bass, the most fun I've ever had fishing was when I found myself casting Strike King Bitsy Minnows and Rapala CD1's into a school of bull blue gills suspending under a creek bridge. The action was nonstop.
Since then, I'…
AWESOME question! Pop-up is the main bite early and I call that a "lift".
If you have proper gear- your float will (( lift )) slightly up in the water.
The reason I talk about sensitivity in a setup is that fish eject their food all day long. Somet…
good one Josh
The catfish in my pond are awake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Which of those work for you Dale?
Is that cricket PINK?????? Greg, the lengths you have gone to fashion a cricket for a flyrod. I must apologize. I should have told you you could use REAL crickets on a flyrod. # 10 hook, single "B" sinker, small float, rollcast. I've read Shooter's…
Are they skin mounts? If they are, they are very good! Trophy natives!
