It’s been a while since I posted something on my blog. Well I guess it’s because of winter depression and all. But I promise I’ll post some flies, if nothing else, more often now. Pike fishing season starts on 1st of April here so until then I will post some flies and maybe fish for some trout and chub.

All the ponds and lakes are still kinda messed up so all I can do is prepare for some better days.

I came to this idea by inverting the popper foam. It’s made with weed guards so it will be perfect for ponds in spring. I used craft fur only for this one and even though it’s 18cm. long I hope there wont be any problem delivering the fly.

I just got this tool from Fairy River fly fishing tackle manufacture for testing. I barely tie any flies beside streamers so I am not going to use this one for dubbing but hair and all kind of furs. The hooks rotate on ball bearings for smooth, fast and precise operation. The best thing about this tools is that you don’t need to use both hands.

I’ve never tried this color on my flies before and I guess it’s worth experimenting. Just got my Wapsi craft fur and I guess you’ll see alot of these in my fly box. I find craft fur one of the best materials I’ve ever tried. It’s so light synthetic and it’s so easy to cast such a flies. It’s giving you a benefit of fly fishing for pike with light rods and it’s quite an experience.

Here’s a “little” something I made for pike. I hope I’ll try this one out next weekend. This one is made with Trailing Hook System mention before but this time I used two triple hooks. For this 7 inch (18 cm) streamer I used my favorite Craft Fur and Ostrich feathers.

I just got my craft fur and it’s time to experiment. This one is made specially for pike.
