Laker One. A Tadpole fly is real simple Wooly Bugger without the hackle. It is an old British fly I learned about and how to tie while I was a member of the Bury St Edmonds Fly Dressing Guild in 1990. Tied in bright yellow or black on a size 14 hook is a killer when you can't make up your mind on what to start using. It is a slow sinker which can either be tied with lead or a bead head. I like to tie with lead underbody with a red thread wrap head.

Thanks Catyakker! Again super fish. I might just have to start tying my own flies!

Thanks Gitter. Well try as I might, I don't reckon I ever get close to Banker. At 72, I don't think I will have 10 more years of fishing left in me. Them banks are getting steeper, and the rocks on the creek bed are getting slipperier every year.

Yes Sir I know the feeling! That's why there are nice flat bank spaces,docks, nice lawn chairs,shaded trees,and ice chest with cold drinks! Also it's also nice to have a great guide on hand! This will add ten more years of fishing for us retires.
