Just wanted to re visit this thread with a sculpin our very own Tim R. caught this weekend. Its a big one and pretty much the size I tie my patterns to chase big cumberland valley trout.
I found bot the red eye and the orange dorsal interesting.
I have a bunch of red eyes for sculpin patterns. Looks like I'm going to have to use them very soon.
Dude I saw that on FB. Couldn't believe the size of that slimmy nasty thing. I was of the opinion your sculpins may be too big, but then I saw that barfer and thought, "Meh...maybe not!"
