Heres a recent tie from the vise. This is a green sunfish/ bluegill pattern that is articulated. The rear hook is a 2/0 b10s stinger and the front is a 5/0 predator hook. The fly is 10" long. Hope you enjoy!

I usually don't care much for flies but this is a exception, it's amazing!

Thanks guys. I have a box full of super bright flies that I've tied, but Have been trying to tie some lately that more realistically imitate the actual forage thats found in the rivers I fish.

I don't know about that at all. I can't spin deer hair like that, and your sunny would certainly get eaten! How long?

Location: Poynette WI.		Really nice work! Everytime i see a fly like that it makes me want to get into fly fishing. I really want to start making some myself, but think I'll wait til i get into fly fishing and get some experience with other flies and how they work. Again nice job and hopefully we'll get to see more.
