I like small size 10 and 12 Crickets in black with a white strike indicator on top. Also a lightly weighted Cricket works well as it sinks very slowly and drives the gills nuts.

Bassman I received my flies on Thursday and want to thank all who tied flies for this swap. Thank's Bassman for hosting this swap and as always it was run very well.
Bassman I mailed my flies off Monday evening. Please let me know when you receive them.
Thanks,
Hobo
Bassman, I just finished up my ties today so I'll be mailing my flies off to you on Monday.
Thanks for hosting this swap.

Bassman this is hoboflyfisher: I'd like in this swap with my size #16 Glass Gill Fly.
Thank you.
Very nice pictures and I like the fly. The fishing is really warmming up here in Central TX also. Crappie and White Bass are running and I'm going to tie up some of your flies and see what I can...
I see that many of you are posting having smaller Jon boats in the 8, 10, 12 foot range. I've read from many sources that 80% of all boating fatalities have been from these sized boats. Some states...

Blue I just have to get in on this swap. Please sign me up for Texas and I'll tie a Glass Bead Gill Fly. I and others who I have given this fly to have done very well catching Blue Gills. Oh, this...
There's a stove which is called the Zip Stove which will burn anything and is very light, I have used one a few times in Canada when I was younger. A 7 inch Teflon stove, a small coffee pot and fix...
As for flies you seem to be using many I use already, may I suggest while the warm water is here using a much faster retrieve of your fly. In warmer water fish want fast retrieves, also fish eat...
Like Rick's reply this is the setup I use also.
Heck I've had flies that got trashed even before I caught a fish by the dreaded Weed or Tree Gods. Usually I get anywhere from 4 to 8 fish per fly. My problem is catching anywhere from 4 to 8...
Campmor has been around for some time and is a reputable catalog dealer which I have had dealings with. As to Rick do as I do and drink water or soda out of the ice chest and don't drink from the...
Great pictures, thank you for posting them for us that couldn't attend the MI. Fish-IN. I had no problem viewing the pictures.
Catfish whiskers do not sting. The fins behind the gills will get you though if you don't handle the catfish correctly. From experience the fins if your stabbed do hurt badly, like for days,,,,,,
CC the site you posted would not down load....any other?
Where would one if interested purchase a micro outfit? I do have a 2 wt outfit which is a load of fun to land fish on, but a micro would be awesome on catching my favorite fish the Blue Gill.
waynep, thanks for the update on your ordeal. I didn't know that anti-venom wasn't used anymore, good info. You know where us southern boys live, fish, and hunt we are always under the event of...
Thank you both rrhyme and Tracy that helped me a good bit.
Dang sorry story hope you recover soon. I was out about 3 years ago on a local river (the Llano River) and had a Cottonmouth snake try a couple times for my fly which was a red crawfish imitation I...
Bear742: So could you maybe tell me where do you get a stickguard?
Also RRhyne would you possibly have some info on the correct way to do a bend back?
Thank You

Bats in the evening around you are good luck (their feeding on insects).
I wear a hat that is well over 20 years old if I'm fishing with a new fishing partner (it take a while to break in a new...
inderk: So glad to see you making a post here and showing us your fly. I believe this fly will work well for warm water fish as well as what you use it for. Thank You!

Good tip because I'm always either breaking the thread, cutting it, or whatever. Hey it's what makes life bearable not being perfect.
