Seaducing wooly bugger anybody?? hmm i guess we'll have too name her being that she is seaducive and wooly.

How about Helga? or Ulga? any suggestions??

Excuse the Iphone pictures, parents are out of the country with the good camera.

Made a few buggers. Still learning how to fish them off the bottom.

Real slow, alot of time the fish will take them on the initial fall though.

The black one with red flash in the tail caught a bunch of green sunfish. I just let it sink slowly, and then pull it in slowly once it gets close to the bottom.

sweet!!

Finished those bass poppers. Might get to try them out tomorrow.

I am just learning to make flies for my husband. And he is actually catching fish on them.

Do you fish with your flies too, or just your husband? You can learn a lot from You Tube on making flies. Also visit Fly Fish Ohio. They have great videos too.

I am just now learning how to fly fish. I have the 10 and 2 down really well, but I lack on accuracy and distance.
I have yet to catch a fish on it.

You will get it, it just takes a little time. Once you get that first fish on the fly, you will be hooked on fly fishing. I know I was!

Now now dont encourage her. Her place is at the fly table making me flies, not on the water lol.

I too have just started learning to fly fish. We are planning a fly trip to the Lower Mountain Fork in OK so I have been out working on my casting, decided to use a fly so I didn't look totally crazy, and landed my first 2 fish on the fly, was way cool,see Here
Was fishing a local pond so that I had plenty of room to work on my cast.

I bet she can do both.

This is an interesting brim bug I learned about over on ultralight fly fishing; size 8 streamer hook, 1.5 mm foam circles, squirrel tail-p-

Big like on that one. How you cutting the disks? How big? Hook size? Etc. etc. etc.
Thank you for sharing with us.

Robin; the small ones up front are punched out with a paper punch; the larger ones in the back are 5/16. No tye much made me some cutters years ago to punch em out with. That's a streamer hook, size 8 4x i think. A guy over on ultralight is gonna do a step by step; thing about it is there's lots of variations. Like, I took a slim piece (1/8 inch wide) of 1.5 mm foam and spiraled around the hook shank before I put the discs on to keep them from crossing underneath; came out pretty good; brim and yearling bass ought to love em-p-

Thank you Gene. They look like some real killers.
