Guest Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 Kudos to the judges at the Blow Out who picked my frog pattern as the best. It was picked up by Rainy's Flies for production in 2010 and it is the center fold article in the autumn issue of Fly Tyer Magazine. You guys have taste.

Guest Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 I guess I'll give y'all a chance and pick now so you have some time to work on it (seeing that I already have a fly). Let's do a fluke fly. By that I mean something that acts like the plastic version. A baitfish imitator that sinks slow or suspends and darts around when stripped. Get on your thinking caps and don't try stealing mine Rich! Good luck and have fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm M Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Cogratulations Craig, I'll pop over to Barnes and Nobles to check it out. The success is well deserved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rich mc Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 sounds like an interesting challenge.i have a fly that im tying for a pike swap that may fit the bill. this will be a tough contest with all the good tyiers out there. you will be the receding champ when all is done. we should do a separate thread for this contest and will need a write up for the newsletter. rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapala Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 This is what I have been looking/waiting for. I fished a super fluke alot with regular gear. The closest thing I have seen are big Pike flies or those gummy like flies of which I have never tried. If anyone needs a field tester I'm game.
