[@POWARENJA]

Awesome fly! I will have to try it this summer.

[@mullz1382]

nice frog thanks for sharing !

[@BlooMagooTV]

I like this pattern a lot because it is simple and still looks great. One of my concerns with any popper-type pattern is keeping the body from rotating on the hook shank. I would recommend first tying in two pieces of 50lb mono, one on either side of the hook shank to help stabilize the foam. Optionally, you can make one (or both) of those pieces of mono into a weed guard simply by tying in longer pieces and then tying the tag ends in at the hook eye as your final step before whipping off.

Nice one, Im going to tie this one up for Pike in the UK

[@RustyShacklefardd]

This fly is here to kick bass and chew bubblegum

[@MrFlyfish101]

I come to your shop a lot and I tie this fly with buck tail and crystal chinnelle and black and white foam it makes a great baitfish

I guess I'm a slow learner, every time I try to figure 8 my thread I'm never sure how it goes =could you help me to understand this maneuver?

[@SuperLAndrus]

Super glue is water soluble. Do you have any other recommendations for glue that won't dissolve in the water?

[@firebirder94]

what thickness foam do you use for this pattern?

[@stevenbass3380]

what are the materials that you use? and where can i find the? do you have any advice on how to masher the materials. And i am a beginner is this fly good for beginners? And i am trying to do more different fly patterns. is there any patterns that both small/large mouth bass will work?

[@hanna2nv]

he uses 2mm craft foam marabou feathers and super glue thread is mono. this fly is for anything that eats food from the surface. tie it small it becomes an insect big is frog its not that hard for a beginner. but if you want a real simple begginers fly for the same stuff look up how to tie a gurgler fly they are dead simple and work everywhere im from australia and i tie it small for estuary fish. medium like a size 1 hook for our bass and and then ill tie it big for our freshwater cod or pelagic fish

[@zestysauce]

what size hook?

[@courtney69munn]

What size of hook ?

[@albangler]

I tie most of them on a 1/0. You can go bigger or smaller depending on the size of you like.
