Anyone Interested in Tying Glow Flies?

[Skip48]

is that the glow foamies you can get at Michaels/JoAnne/Hobby Lobby?

No, I will post what I do today and include a few pics of materials I use. This is different than anything I have seen while I have been tying these. I spent a ton of time on the phone talking to companies about their products 10 years ago to figure this out what to use and how.

Do the glow jigs/flies produce better?

Very interested. Are you going to do a swap? Fly of the Week? Post instructions on this forum? Or all of the above? Jim

Have not thought about that, but would do what ever everyone wants. I did post it on the board here earlier. Also guys don't forget you could even make a glow extended type fly, like a dragonfly tail?

Do the glow jigs/flies produce better?

Lots of guys tell me they do a lot better on glowing jigs or even just the head of a jig painted with glow paint. However what I do is so much brighter than the paint they sell now. I use clear powder paint and add the glow powder to that to make a head powder paint.

Thanks Skip. I saw your post on "how to" and tried to delete my post. But I guess it didn't take as I see it still there. I have been interested in the glow stuff for awhile now. Glow furled leaders, etc. Thanks for sharing. Jim
