    Too much snow to fish here so I hit the vice. Brian Wise of Fly Fishing the Ozarks has a great video on YouTube. If you nymph fish at all you have caught trout smaller ...more than this fly!

    Details: Largemouth Bass with a Size 2 articulated wooly bugger and bass candy

    Had a few minutes to spare after class so I spun out a few articulated streamers. I prefer the size 2 Gamakatsu stinger hooks for their extra wide gap. I suggest ...more building the heads out of ice dub...

      We're u in school wen u tied it?
    2. FlyRodCommander 0
      Those look nice. I've never though of tying an articulated woolly bugger. Good idea.
    3. Austin Austin 0
      I like it! I'm going to have to do some with a dub head on it. I also want to try stacking some hair like a sex dungeon.

      Nice

      Because of the extra flash it gives the fly and that may just put a fish over the top on whether to strike it or not.
