What's the hook? I like it.

That's just a barbless BWO Brand size 12 nymph hook.

A little late to the clouser cray party but did these inverted on a jig hook. Will be tying some OG style next.View attachment 1641236979View attachment 1641236980

I’ve seen a lot of pretty flies on this site but to me this one is 100% fish slayer without a doubt! Nice fly bro!

Oh, weird. Looked to me like the super wide gap hooks folks tie some carp flies on. Thanks either way!

A buddy out in Utah has been dabbling the last couple years and is starting to get more into fishing. The past week, I've been putting together a dry/dropper box to drop in the mail and surprise him.

He's an Upstate NY transplant, so I'm going to duct tape it to a can of Cream Ale to ship.

Something I just made up from attributes from many flies. This one will hunt more crappie, perch, etc, but I'm sure it'd fo a fine job for smallmouth, too.

Like Genny Cream Ale? There was a point in my life where my caloric intake of Cream Ale was higher than for all other forms of nutrition. I loved the stuff!

That's the one. Both I and the recipient also lived off it at various points.

I got a bucket of materials from someone, so I’m just playing with beginner patterns. Nothing like the artwork many of you display. I’m also finding (so far) that it’s easier for me to whip finish with my fingers than with a tool. That, and I need to use the vacuum, lol.
