BIG GUNS!!!

Found a bunch of wicked irons on clearance at my local fly shop, Mustad 34007's, in 5/0, 6/0, 7/0 and 8/0. Whipped these up this morning. Now to go find someone to throw them to

What do ya throw them with a 10 wt spey rod w a 900 grain line? And I thought a #6 streamer was big!

 

[sandfly]

now you need some 10/0 and 12/0 for blue water..

 

[PACOFRANSICO]

A 10wt will throw them. 6\0 tandems is as big as go. Take the barb off & put the hook file to those 34007 before you use em. They aint exactly that sharp.

 

[sniperfreak223]

honed the hooks shortly after tying them, mustads are strong hooks but almost always need sharpening :-( . Test-casted them on both of the 10-weights, they are 7/0 and cast fine,even on the cheapo Cabela's Three Forks 10-weight, but I do have a 12-weight if that didn't work out ;-)

That much rabbit will not be fun to cast in a real fishing situation

 

[sandfly]

Only if you don't know how to cast...


sniper they are good looking flies, if ya get on the Delaware would be great for the stripers and musky there..

 

[Tiogadog]

Good looking pike flies

yeah that must be it

 

[PACOFRANSICO]

Those flys are a version of the black death trapon fly. They'd probably catch fish but the rabbit is heavy especially when wet. And not really what I look for in a predatory fly.

Few Big ones

The pike and musky on French creek would love them! Would like to see what they do.
