getting ready for spring

Nice looking work!

Mike, do you fish those baits with a fly rod?

thanks guys.
hatcketjack, yup all for the flyrod, the jigs are all 1/100oz, i just let them sink a bit and strip them back.

can't wait to see pictures of the fish you catch with those bugs. They really look good, I am not much with a flyrob, but it sure looks like fun.

Great looking flies, the fish won't stand a chance when they see those.

wonder how they would work down south in TN?? hint hint . very nice work

nice lookin ties! where i am waters are probly open or maybe a little bit of ice.here in southern nj,ice never seems to get thick and stay thick and safe enough to walk out on much.i hate the cold and winter,but i wish it would either stay cold and freeze over and get safe to walk on,or get warm and stay warm lol.been tying a lot lately myself,and built some metal "junk yard specials" for throwin at snappers in the summer.spring can't come soon enough,need it here now already!

nice looking baits the Gills hould wear you out :biggrin

Nice job Mike. These long NY winters sure do put a cramp in my fishing. The bluegill and jack perch should be moving into the boat marina soon. can't wait.

thanks. haha i know what you mean, hopefully its a quick warm up.
