THANKS TOOTY

Comment by Greg McWilliams on February 8, 2012 at 4:08pm: David, NO NO NO no master here just a grasshopper!!!!! Always looking to learn!!!! I use an 8 dry fly hook standard or nynph hook!!!! Body was squirrel, you are spot on on the rest!!!

I tie basically the same fly except with angora goat dubbing in sizes up to 8 3x long!!!!!! The goat dubbing is also coarse and longer than the squirrel body hair!!!!!

The dubbing loop makes the whole fly move!!!!!

Comment by DAVID L EITUTIS on February 8, 2012 at 11:41am: Also that must be the famous Bulldog? Looks like it is well used , BY A MASTER I MIGHT ADD!!!!!!!!!!! Great looking tie . The egg sucking leach has been around for a long time and have you ever tried it for small mouth?

Comment by DAVID L EITUTIS on February 8, 2012 at 11:38am: HEY GREG,

Comment by DAVID L EITUTIS on February 6, 2012 at 9:33pm: HEY LEO,

DOES THE GREAT GURU OF BLUEGILLS , MR. CONDELLO allow us folks down there to fish? If so I could be packed in an hour or so and on my way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment by dick tabbert on February 6, 2012 at 6:57pm: LOL sounds good Leo enjoy

Comment by Leo Nguyen on February 6, 2012 at 6:51pm: LOL no no no..not heading to the eastern and central area this spring. However, may hit the central and eastern seaboard during summer for her side of the family reunion. May hit the famous Condello's ponds for some gill actions.

Comment by dick tabbert on February 6, 2012 at 6:15pm: No I'm just trying to get Leo going. You bit but he hasn't as of yet. Your more than welcome the pond is there hoping to do some new restructuring inside the pond this spring. I know I have some nice catfish that will enjoy your flies. They would be fun to catch and could do some serious line stretching.
