i never fished with flies before. but i was fishing for crappie yesterday with my normal plastic bobby garland baits. not much action, a little ways from my wife and I was a gentleman catching bluegill really well. on his way out he stopped by and i asked how he was catching so many fish, he gave be a small fly with like 4 rubber legs no weight, just a hook tied with some kind of a chennile ect. i was using 4lb line he said to tie it on and put the bobber about 16inches back and i started catching fish. so i am going to start fishing this method, so for starters where do i start looking for flies, where are good places to get them at reasonable prices. it was fun, the guy who gave me the fly did say he tied his own they looked something like this. he was also using a small bobber that he said you can put water in it, he was getting out a mile from shore. ????? where do i start
