Hey Guys,
I am new to the world of tying flies and have just messed around with coming up with stuff....I know for those who are masters of this art could find everything wrond with mine, but I am just curious if you guys think these will catch fish? Maybe one day I will be as good as some of you guys....I see what you guys come up with and they are just stellar patterns....
I hit the water the other day with the goal in ming to use only a fly tied by myself, but I ended up switching to a little popper a few hours into the trip.
this is the fly I tied...I have no clue what I was trying to base this fly off of.
Then i switched to the popper and killed the gills
I ended up tying my fly back on and caught a decent rock bass with it....it was my first fish caught by a fly that I had created.
So today I decided to try and tie a few flies to use to chase after smallies. I attempted to tie two streamer patterns and a crayfish pattern.....and here is the end product.
no weight on this pattern
I added some weight to this one
both streamers are about 3 1/4 to 3 1/2 inches long
Then I tied this.
You guys think these will work for smallies? Any tips on tying would also be appreciated
