The Prey Clone_Fly

A new type of Pike fly i've been working on lately.
Uses: Flex Tube XL (Tail and Prey fish.)
DNA holo fusion and some long rooster saddles on top.
Some fur as chin and end tail.
Much of the hookshank been kept clear, to keep some space for the prey fish.
I've only used some mylar cord to decorate it.

Have a nice fishery,


Raymond.

Peacock Bass Poppers

A few poppers for Peacock Bass.
Provided with a breath of paint and scaled foil (Also done by the undersigned.)

A lot of work went into these bass poppers, but very rewarding to tie them.

Cheers!

Wooly Mouse

lots of snow and ice over here in Holland.
So more time to tie flies rather than fly fishing for the esox brigade..

Wooly mouse:

Cheers!

All is quiet on New year's day..

Happy new year everyone and best wishes!

The fly that bites back

An eight year old boy asked me, can you tie a black piranha.
Don't know I said but I'll die trying for ya.
It's such a nice little fellow, so I decided this one is from the house!

The fly that bites back! lol

Cheers,


Raymond.

Coming up one angel!

Busy times

Every time I want to post out, something comes in between.
Nevertheless.. Here is one of those flies I've recently have been tied.

I Hope this make a little bit up a my absence.

Kind regards,


Raymond.

Another cuddly pike toy.

A Fat (fancy) Bastard woolhead.

Really have tried to push some boundaries on this one..

Cut into shape.. in the last phase the cutted wool almost get airborne (Thickness of one single fiber approx 24 micron.)

If you pack them really tightly, than you've kept some serious silhouette after cutting into desired shape. (Picture above is the rear end of this pike fly.)

I've been using the Partridge -Ad Swier- absolute pike fly size 4/0 and 6/0 for this articulated pike fly.

(Right picture: formed, unformed shape.)

Some pics just for the fun of it..

Its seems a little bit insane to take so much effort for a pike fly..

after a few takes this 'fly' looks like some kinda ancient battlefield flag. (And I'm just lovin it! lol)

Have a nice summer fishery,

Raymond.
