Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Hello All,

I am new here to the site as well as the group.  I was invited by Bill Purmort.  I have been fly fishing and tying for around 20 or so years now.  I cut my teeth chasing brookies in the mountains but soon discovered the joy of pursuing warm water fish with a fly rod.  My wife and I started a tying company last year.  We focus on warm water flies.  My adventures in fishing and tying can be followed or seen at www.gotflyfishing.blogspot.com

Thanks.

Jeff

Welcome Jeff.  I've been fly fishing close to 50 years but just started tying a little over a year ago.  Your site looks cool.  I like your stippled poppers, poppers are my favorite thing to tie and to fish. Look forward to sharing with you.

Mark thanks for checking out the site and the kind words.  I cant wait to see your poppers!

Good Job, on the on you Creations!!!!!! GOOD LUCK on the COMPANY!!!!!!
