Guest bigbadbrent Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Tied up a bunch of these, heres the order of the ones i tied, until i got one that i really liked...Really need to get the STP cutter, and not cut it by hand, would make them much, much better STP Frog Size 4 Daiichi 1260 Charteuse Uni Big-Fly thread Foam, foam and rubber legs I didn't use anything fancy on top (like holo eyes) as the fish can't see the eyes, so why waste money on them, and add weight Quote
hydropsyche Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 They look like they will work. I've never heard of that pattern. Are you planning on going for some bass? Quote
albannachxcuileag Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 For some reason I am thinking 'Kermit'. Quote
cheeler Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Watch out that Miss Piggy doesn't tackle you from behind when using those! Quote
Guest bigbadbrent Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 hahah i know it looks like kermit, smiling away! Next summer i'm planning on catching fish on things that most people don't fish. Frogs at night, as well as mice on the bow for big browns. Also gonna try fishing just some wierd things to see what fish do (like a crab pattern or somethin) Quote
bulltrout Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 They look like they will work. I've never heard of that pattern. Are you planning on going for some bass? here ya go hydro... http://www.onlineflytyer.com/article_foamfrogs.asp Quote
bulltrout Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 hey brent...in that article there is a template for the body for you to print out... Quote
hydropsyche Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Looks like a fun pattern to tie. Brent will have to let me know if its worth it!!! Quote
Guest bigbadbrent Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 hey brent...in that article there is a template for the body for you to print out... yup, but you'll never get it exactly the same unless you're SUPER precise (which im not, by any means)..to get it exact i'd want the cutters which you can now buy. Probably tie a few more tonight to use up the foam..They're so easy to tie, but use a ton of legs Quote
maxwell Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 great pattern dude brown and grey would halfto be my favorite color combo...fish love woodfrogs..... Quote
snakeman Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Nice flies dude. The largemouth bass at my lake in Ontario would love those things. Quote
