    Furs and Feathers

    Made an order from this guy and I am happy with everything I received. He sales straight from the trappers so it is not bagged. Fast shipping and reasonable prices. http://www.flytyingfurs.com/products.htm#TAILS

The others are deer, coyote tail, raccoon tail, muskrat skin and woodchuck tail. The muskrat skin is nice, lots of...

    Zonker cutter - pic heavy!

    I know most have seen the guy on you-tube make a cutter but with all the blades out in the open no way was I going to make one to use.. So got to thinking about one that was safe to use. Pulled out some 22 gage sheet medal to make a box the blades could slide into. The box is 2'' long x 1 1/2...

    Bead head Turkey tail nymph

    I got a lot of turkey tails so thought I would use turkey tail and tie up some nymphs. This one is a size 12 nymph hook and I'm going to tie some 14's and 16's also. Used a 3/32 copper bead, size 32 copper wire for the ribbing and the dubbing is caddis life cycle/antron mix & orange 70d thread.

    How about a almost finished Dry Box

    Been working on some wets and dry flies. Since Fatman posted his wet fly box I'll post my box of dry flies about ready for the trout river. :) Got two other boxes of flies ready with a mix of wet and dry flies (pic not included). Hope to add a few more this week.

    A few squirrel jigs

    Been tying a few squirrel tail jigs for a friend. Tied some 1/16 & 1/32 for him to use on crappie and a few 1/64 for crappie or trout since he uses spinning tackle.

    Lake Hartwell 3-15-12

    Just a quick report on how those red/white/yellow jigs I tied Wednesday worked on the crappie. They liked them:):) Fished the same place as Monday and pulled 1/16 jigs in 2' to 6' depths. Kept my limit of 30 nice crappie. Most times I don't keep many fish but we are having a spring event and I...

    Lake Hartwell 3-12-12

    Greenwood 2-28-12

    Hit the lake yesterday afternoon and for the first three hours the fishing was very slow. About 4:00 I hit a stretch close to 400 yards long and caught fish like a fire-drill til 5:30 when I put up the rods to get the boat loaded before dark hit. It was a blast, caught some nice crappie, bass...

    Tried my hand at Bunny Jigs

    After seeing all those beautiful bunny jigs that JJ always tye and post I finally tied some today. Think I'm going to like tying the bunny jigs. I had some minnow heads left over from the swap jigheads I had ordered. I used some custom mixed baby blue powder and used a little purple on the...

    Palmer 552 mold help

    I was the proud winner of a piece of sh@#$^* mold on the-bay. Well it looks like someone tried to change this mold into a spinner mold. Are there anything I can do to make it usable, fill in the holes. Even where the hook eyes goes need work. Looks like the bottom is not closing tight either...

    I spent all day yesterday driving to all the recycle yards I know of trying to buy some lead. Wow no one would sale anything. The last one I stopped at, asked one guy and no they didn't sell either but then a guy came from around the corner and asked how much I needed and what I wanted it...

    Lake Greenwood 1-16-12

    Hit the lake today to see how those newly tied jigs would do. Between them and some marabou jigs I was able to find 4 nice crappie, a bass and a white bass. Had another fisherman at the ramp take the pics then let the fish swim off. Maybe I will have another chance at them come spring.

    Skirt jigs

    A guy from S.C. posted a pic of some jigs he and his buddy has been using for many years while crappie fishing. They use a vinyl piece for the body. I had to tye some with a chenille body and I really like the way they look.
