Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Beer Tie Next Monday and 2018 Beer Tie Dates

The Rainbow Warrior is a great fly. Caught a bunch of bluegill on it during the tournament actually.

Dalton,

They have renamed the Sand Bar. I've asked if we can hang up some classy fly fishing decor to accent the makeover. If allowed would anyone have something to contribute?  

Is Davis going to the Georgia game that night?

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Flies to work on over the winter

I'll be working on a supply of this frantic tailed-streamer I received from Ivan in the spring - worked well at Weverton and Lander in September.

Dalton,

They have renamed the Sand Bar. I've asked if we can hang up some classy fly fishing decor to accent the makeover. If allowed would anyone have something to contribute?

Is Davis going to the Georgia game that night?

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Flies to work on over the winter

Patriot (this is just the 4th tie, and the first one that is slightly presentable.  The placement of the red band and size of the head need some work.

Definitely fishable, but not quite presentable for looking at.


as for streamers.  Instead of articulated streamers, I designed a funny work.

​Easy to tie and relatively life-like in the water, but that brown chenille tail holds a fair amount of water, making it more difficult to cast than I would like.
This was last winter's project.

I love working with deer hair, but it is a warm weather past time.  Cleaning up inside is too much work and deer hair ends up everywhere.  

I've tried some articulated streamers, but they haven't fished well for me.  It might just be my lack of confidence in them, but normal streamers seem to work better for me. I've thought about trying tube flies, but have been too lazy to commit to it.
