craftgill
and the backpack worm

It's called the "NoneFly" cause I don't have any hooks

Remember these?

Created a new bass fly I call Bass Brunch. One pattern is tied to mimic a Bluegill, one a Gizzard Shad, and one a Threadfin Shad. First two tests with Bluegill pattern were successful. Will be doing more field tests on Lake Athens, tomorrow.

Bass Brunch-Bluegill


Bass Brunch-Gizzard Shad

Those are great! Maybe submit one to April FlyOTM contest?

Oh I really like them, excellent job!!

Just some I've been working on:

They look good and fishy Jim!

one armed tying

nice flies

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.

I'm new to this forum, so could someone please give me the

Great forum.

Thank You,

Oh, and welcome to the forum. These should fix you up.

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.

Rubber leg wooly buggers I tyed up for Steelhead. Palmered hackle in the front to keep them back. Tyed on size 2-6 streamer hooks 3x-6x long extra heavy. They also work great for Salmon, Bass, Pike, Trout and Panfish (when tyed smaller). I tye up a bunch since my uncle is a guide and takes most of them from me lol. Thanks for letting me share some pics. Hope it's okay with everyone to post this many pics.

Tight lines,

Ricky V.



STILL HAVING TO GLUE SOME HEADS UP ON THESE AND TRIM THE THREAD.

More.

More flies. Tying up Wooly Buggers.
The madness of us fly tyers lol!



Glo Bugs before dotting them up for winter Steelhead.
Tyed on Tiemco 2457 hook size 6-8 extra heavy.



Damsel flies.



Local baitfish.



Eccentric looking Mickey Finn streamers, Black Nose Dace (without red butt tag) and a flying ant my wife tyed up. Red, black and yellow tyed with yellow marabou under wing.



BEFORE GLUING UP THE HEADS.
Steelhead and Salmon fly patterns. Hot glue egg - egg sucking bunny leeches, purple egg sucking leeches, comets, bombers, buggers and other flies.






Hot glue eggs for Salmon.
Tyed on Tiemco 2457 size 8 extra heavy wire.

Last set of pics. Hope it's okay to share this many pics on here. Always had to take a lot of pics of stuff I tyed to send to my uncle before coming up to visit and fish on the rivers. Had to make sure his order was filled lol. The man spends too much time guiding and not enough time tying.

Sculpins tyed up on Fish Skulls Sculpin heads and a Bunny Streamer. Had to trim up the sides a little to get them equal.



Tying up a baitfish pattern. Had to take off the eyes and pull the lateral line of flash up before re-attaching the eyes and adding some softex to the head area. Bent the hook shank near the eye and tyed it hook point up.

Makes me want to tie

first attempt at tying poppers



round two

^ niiiice

Yes I know it's a jig and not a fly. But I tied it.

This was my first attempt at tying. I call it "Lil Stinker" Not only because it looks like a skunk but is also made of skunk fur (clothing grade). I'm learning fly fishing so tying flys seemed like a common sense way to pass time and find use for idol hands. I'll be tying flys and jigs for my kayak runs down the Colorado river around Bend Tx.
