Wolfie Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 a great cluster of working killers, wish I had a couple of the yesterday on the Highwood..maybe they would have produced the two fair size "bulls" I saw tormenting me in a beautiful pool...........Wolfie Quote
JONJON Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 Howdy, those are some pretty. i'm pretty new to tying, what kind of material. Me thinks it's krystal flash of some kind, but could be wrong..JOnjon Quote

Guest JayVee Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Brad, you like your fibers square like that? I've never tied a Clouser but I would have thought not trimming them would imitate a more natural taper. Not criticizing...just wondering. Quote
bhurt Posted September 14, 2009 Author Posted September 14, 2009 Its kind of hard to see in the photo but they are tied in a semi-oval so when wet there is a bit of a point to them. Wolfie, Personally these ones were tied for the bow, for bull trout I like to go bigger. The ones in the photo are done on a #6 wet nymph hook where for bullies I usally tie them in a #4 2x shank, but then again I have only caught one bully so far. Quote
JONJON Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Howdy i went to wholesale looking for the some DNA and they look at me like i was smoking rock, never heard of it and ended the conversation and walked away... not sure if i'll go back there..right....where does one buy DNA? and started looking at Bows for hunting and was told i'm too big and neeed a custome bow, think i'll stick to fishing...jonjon Quote

SanJuanWorm Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Brad I don't think they'll work at all. PM me for my address so you can ship them to me and I can dispose of them. Quote

deeppowder Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Great looking flies. Love those bar bell eyes. I use them on all my streamer type flies. Quote
bhurt Posted September 18, 2009 Author Posted September 18, 2009 I like them too but I do find that sometimes they can be a bit heavy at the front end allowing the streamer to go down in a nose dive, which is what I want sometimes, but not always. Tring to get my hands on some that rattle to see if the sonic noise it would make under water would make a diffrence, I don't think so but it is a fun experinment to try. Quote
