Good morning Texas Anglers
It has passed some time since I posted my last thread in this incredible Forum. First at all I want to give you my best wishes for all of you and your beloved ones in this 2014.
This time I bring for you my last video to show some of the Fly-Tails I was tying in the last weeks. I will use major part of these Fly-tails complement my Attilas (own made spoonfly) and have more fun in my fishing.
I have tied different colours combination with the purpose to have many alternatives to choose at the moment when Im following a catch. It is true that colours and weather conditions go together. Then, depending on day light, water colour, and the specie that I am looking for, I will use different combinations.
As I said, before to get wet many of these Fly-Tails will be set together with my Attilas (you can watch my Attila Spoonfly in my Youtube Channel to understand what I meant).
Im sure, I will enjoy a lot doing captures with these Fly-Tials and my own lures. Here in Peru, is very strange to see an angler fishing with his own-made lures/flies/etc.
The materials I have used:
- Saltwater hook Eagle Claw Octopus 4/0 and Mustad #8
- For the heads: Deer hair (tail and belly) colours: White, Black, Yellow, Chartreuse, Fl. Hot Pink, Fl. Light Blue, Fl. Orange, Purple, Red, Blue
- Artificial Craft fur: almost same colours as Deer Hair
- Coloured threads
- White Krystal Flash for bodies
- Coloured Krystal Flash for sides and back
- In some Fly-Tails I used feathers for the heads, to give more volume and movement
I hope you like this video, your suggestions and comments are welcome.
Happy New Year and have lot of fun fishing this 2014, Antonio
