I've been tying a variety of ants lately and was interested in peoples favourites. Any chance you might repost? Quote
Guest 420FLYFISHIN Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 i like putting a white post and a black parachute on mine. Its really good for close in shots and a large post it easy to see. I am going to try some hot pink ones this spring and summer Quote
bigalcal Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 I was turned on to this pattern at the Crowsnest Cafe and Flyshop. It is a pattern made by Turcks of Tarantula fame. Awesome fly and very visible. "Cutthroat Candy"! http://www.flyfishingjacksonhole.com/fly_t...e-power_ant.htm Quote
