Guest Josh Glovinsky Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Working on some new fly patterns, Here is one I came with that I hope will catch some fish. Since we are supposed to have a nice warm up tomorrow I will give it a try tomorrow afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob G Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 Nice looking blockheads! I only wish I could get my local smallies to come dine on the surface but water temps getting a bit chilly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Josh Glovinsky Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 No luck on the Long Legged Liger today but did catch 15 smallies on the Frosty Minnow. The largest attached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Dodge Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Wow! I don't think you should have started that report off by saying "No luck". Sounds like a good outing to me. Nice pic. That smallie looks a little chunky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob G Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Googled image for Frosty Minnow fly and saw several different flies, curious as to your version. As Terry said, when 15 becomes a bad day, I'm in trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Josh Glovinsky Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Googled image for Frosty Minnow fly and saw several different flies, curious as to your version. As Terry said, when 15 becomes a bad day, I'm in trouble. Most of the smallies where of the smaller nature if 10-12". Anyways the Frosty Minnow is nothing more than my variation of the clouser based on the DNA Clouser. This video is where I got the idea from: Mine is different yet as he uses a number 2 hook, real eyes and no flash. I think a number 2 hook is too much hook based on the length of the fish fibers but what do I know. The bigger hook may keep it out of the mouths of the super small ones though. I am making a video on how to tie my Frosty Minnow and if you are interested in seeing it, just PM me and I will send you the link when it is done. I will send you one of each color if you want. Just PM address.It would be cool to get some other people to test it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob G Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Josh, I'm sure I and others would love to see the video of your fly. Don't hesitate to post it on YouTube or Vimeo and then post the link here in this thread for all to see. As far as sending some samples, that is extremely generous but hold onto those right now and I think we're going to run a smallmouth fly swap before too long and would love for your to participate with your Frosty Minnow.
