As I was Tying the other Crease Flies, I got to thinking.....commercial Panfish Poppers are basically just smaller versions of Bass Poppers. Why mess with wood, or pre-formed bodies, if a Crease Fly pattern could be developed in the proper diminutive sizes?

So, I decided to see just how small I could tie a Crease Fly. Here are the results:

Crease Black Magic


Crease Purple Peril


Crease Red Menace


Crease Tree Froggie


Crease Psychopathfinder


Size Comparisen with a US Quarter


They were all tied on # 8 Dry Fly Hooks. I'm gonna test them out this weekend.

Life is not measured by how many breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away....
