Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I am in no way sponsoring these guys… BUT… The deal is incredible.
For those of you that tie your own flies, Jigs etc, You have to check these guys out. Rip Lips Fishing.
I use Tungsten Bead heads a lot especially for tying Chironomids, amongst other things.
For your comparison: 
Cabela's 20 Bead heads (depending on size) around $8 plus shipping… 100 of the Exact same bead heads $18 plus $3 shipping… No brainer… Just wanted to share, hope I haven't broken any protocols… but take it from a tier… this is a great deal...

That's not a bad price, I sell most of my tungsten beads for $14.99 in the shop(per 100)
Try your local fly shop, it might save you a bit, BP, and Cabelas are not always the best deal in town,
Shop local. Oh, and I ship :)

tim ,you have a website?always try to buy from local or small businesses even if it's a couple bucks more.my local shop,well 40 minutes away closed 3 years.one more cast in countryside illinois.joe meyer.great guy and great little shop. ago.cabela's and bp and the internet put him under.joe really helped me out.i think he landed at orvis chicago.well if you got a shop i would be interested in buying from you

You know I don't gave a web site, I do a lot of mail order. I send a lot of 1/100 th and smaller jig heads out to trout and panfish guys.
I was looking today, at my beads, most are $3.59 per pkg of ten, so they are $7.18 per 20, I need to raise my prices, don't want to be cheaper than Cabelas :) if you ever need anything, you can email me at timsfly@hotmail.com
My web site is missouritrout.com/timsflyshop
I do a lot of trout fishing, but my days off I spend in my kayak chasing gills, and crappie, and bass when they are hitting.

One problem, Tim - I haven't seen a fly shop anywhere near me. Just not the kind of thing one see's in the Deep South.

But I know the mail runs regular - most days. :-)

Yes I hate that fly shops sometimes don't make it, I've been doing this for
19 years this year, and 13 years before that for a guy who taught me a lot about
the business.
Holler if I can ever help you find something.
My email I check everyday is timsfly@hotmail.com
My web page is missouritrout.com/timsflyshop
I've got a good mail carrier, he does run nearly every business day.
Okay buddy.

friend request sent to you, Tim :-)

Got it
