Faux Beadhead Dogs Butt fly. (I brush the dog in the spring and tie flies all year long.) :)

Thanks Bob. That does begin to clarify things.
I am wondering what the numbers relate to. I know it is not a pound test, but is is a diameter or a mass per certain length (like flyline is...
Okay, I ordered a rod. I am now dying for it to arrive and thus spending too much time reading, which only gets my rod arm twitching and makes it worse.
One thing that keeps coming up that I...
If you are still looking, also try wordpress.com to do your blogging. They have some really nice templates and such to use.
I love that little creek! So much fun and almost always fish to be caught. That was the families favorite camping place when we still lived in NE. now I have to try find other favorite areas.

Same weekend here in OK! http://www.wildlifedepartment.com/
I'd have missed out on a LOT of great fishing without this site. Had the mistaken idea flies were just for trouts until I read Al Campbell's articles. I don't always get to read everything here,...
greenlantern,
They seem to like pretty much the same things that bluegill, green sunfish, and red ears like to eat. Good luck catching as many as you can, just don't C&R them, unless it is onto a...
Fishingfiend,
When you try this, be sure you tie that as a test fly without an actual hook hanging down there. I say this for two reasons:
1: Unless your wife is much less entertaining than...
That bird has a lot of EGO to think it can use such a small beak to catch that fish. Then to eat it. . . . .:shock:
Frank,
I am not aware of anyone who has done any scientific studies on the differences in popper material sounds, but logic would imply that if we hear them differently, the fish would too, if...
How much of the river does the run cover?
(Noob questions from the guy who would like to get into some stripers but knows nothing aboutthem besides they have stripes. :-) )
Another thought is that most foam poppers I have seen/used/built do not have a really 'clean' edge on the face, so the pop/sound wave may not be as 'clean' either.
I would agree with Aged Sage...
I guess I am an anomaly in the foam popper body world. (Among others, according to SWMBO.) I actually use foam flip flops, the floor tiles shown in another thread on here, yoga blocks, and foam...
I am just so overwhelmed by the amount of water, that I have too much trouble figuring out where I want to go. I'd like to try them all, but I need to learn a peice of water, which means multiple...
Some of the foam bodies I turned on a dremmel can be seen in this image of supplies to tie a nice popper.

That comes from here if you want to see the...
lastchance,
Those will fish and catch well.
I also like a bit longer hook and tail to let the hook hang down into the water. From experience, so do the fish. It also opens up the hook point...
Nice video! Looks like a fun place to hit.
I am gonna have to try more of those places somewhat close by. I did hit the Lower Illinois for a bit a few weeks ago, but then the lightening...
Generally about this big:

(That is a size 2 Mustad Aberdeen hook for scale. )
I would concur with the previous opinions on the matter.
Personally, for 'head cement' I use a bottle of whatever super glue has a brush applicator inside. It is inexpensive and comes with a new...
AllenOK,
I just recently got my hands on a kayak. I have not even had it on the water yet. Does that count as a boat?
I am hoping to hit Copan and Skiatook and Hulah in the near future, but...
Allright AllenOK,
You and I should get together and give some of the 'local' lakes a go. I recently have found myself in B'ville, and am still trying to figure out where to go and what I might...
Jack,
What does it take to get a copy of that PM sent to me also? :)
Don
This is the one that I have been using for the last 5 or so years. I have used it in Nebraska, Houston area, and now Oklahoma. I have caught a lot of sweet gills, red ears, Texas Chiclids, bass,...
