This fast sinking shad worked well in the schooling bass, looks great in the water. Cast out into the schooling fish, allowed to sink then twitched back allowing to sink again a few times. Looks like an injured shad. DC resin to finish of course Mike

Nice. What type of "hair" is that that makes the head?
You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown
Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

Cool, I've seen it in the catalogs. I have another fly that has a head like that and I couldn't figure out what it was.

Wow, Mike. That's one I have to add to my to do list. I'm guessing lead wraps under the mylar to help it sink level? Every time I tie fuzzy stuff around barbell eyes, my fly looks like it has a mohawk, lol.

Lol Kirk Should not need any lead, the eyes are the weight and it swims hook point up. A lot of takes were on the drop Mike
