Alexsfishin1 781 Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 Hey S&Her's, I'm looking forward to this Summer and I'll be focusing on fly fishing quite a bit! Anyone selling any flies that'll do the job? Cheers. Tinker and Tom_Fishin 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jimbojames 285 Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 Look into doing your own bud . It really isnt as hard as you think , i have made my own Redfin , Carp and Mulloway fly's . Craft store's are a good place for fly materials as well as some good suppliers online . So far i haven't caught Redfin on the flys i have made , but the satisfaction of fooling a fish with your own tied fly is awesome . Alexsfishin1 and Tinker 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarsOne 137 Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 I'm with Jimbo - buy yourself a cheap vice online and get stuck into it. Heaps of info on youtube. Things like nymphs, adams parachutes and clousers are so simple you'll be able to do them straight away and go catch fish. Worthwhile investment SaltyFlyer, Alexsfishin1 and jimbojames 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tinker 1,645 Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 Getting my fly rod spooled up as we speak. Expect my first catch to be my ear or my hat, depending on wind. Seriously though, my first target will be carp, then I will attempt something in the salt. Not sure what saltwater species I would target, but I will stay tuned to your reports to get some direction.

Alexsfishin1 781 Posted November 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 Battle scarred specimen that one. What was your fly mate? No idea what it was called, Tinker! Got it ages ago in a pack. Tinker 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
