A great floater/slider fly


I just tied a bunch of these for a fly swap at Fly Tying Forum and I thought I'd share a pic. These guys work really well as a crippled minnow. It lies flat in the water (one eye up, one eye down) because the hook is sideways instead of up-and-down, and the synthetic hairs create great follow-up motion. The shine down the middle is just a piece of flash material.

Cast, sit... twitch-twitch...pull...twitch...KA-BLAMMO!!
