I want to learn how to tie up some sneaky pete flies, but I do not know how. I have a couple premade popper bodies that I can just glue on reverse so the thin part of the body is the nose? Also, what do you use for the tail right after the head? Help me I am lost I only know how to tie wolley buggers and a couple other smallmouth flies??
Thats how I make mine and it works just as well.
Hmmm, imagine the possibilities with this gadget.

Down in the meadow in a little bitty pool
Swam three little fishies and a mama fishie too
"Swim" said the mama fishie, "Swim if you can"
And they swam and they swam all over the dam

The sneaky pete is a great fly. I used it all the time until I started using soft foam. Now, for bass and panfish, I use the "Gurgle-Pop Popper". I have the recipe on my Web site and it is also found in the "Fly of the Week" section on this Web site. The link to my site is:
