Thread: Best fly-rod bass ever

Steve,

I bet it was fun. The biggest LMB I've taken on the fly was ten pounds on a creek with a simple little yellow chartreuse popper. But that was in my younger days not long after I finished high school.

BTW, I tied up two of your flies. Going to give them a try. I've used the HEN (Hare's Ear Nymph) before but have never really done that well on them but I tied up one just like yours with the pheasant tail for the tail, dubbed hare's ear body, and gold beadhead. The bream here seem to like that black MDN (Marabou Damsel Nymph). I also tied one of those foam surface flies of yours with the green chartreuse marabou tail, cactus chenille underbody, foam strip outerbody, and sequin face (I think my sequin needs to be bigger). Now all I need it is some water to put them in. LOL The drought is still ongoing here.
