Sexy Shad Deceivers

Tied up some Deceivers today. Size 2, done Grey over Yellow over White, a color pattern the lure companies call “Sexy Shad”. It definitely is sexy! Can’t wait to get one of these wet!

Allen,

Nice flies. Should be good for just about anything you throw them at.

Nicely done Allen!

Nice tie. I personally prefer the Half-and-Half for the waters I fish, preferably with a flashtail, but the Deceiver is always a good pattern for a lighter/shallower presentation.

I did get to fish one of these a couple days ago. Went to a small stream about 20 minutes from home. This stream is fairly shallow; most places are only knee-deep. I did manage to find a waist-deep hole the hard way :slight_smile: Only got one strike, from what looked like a Rock Bass. Didn’t see any Smallmouth, which is surprising, as this stream is full of them.

Tied up an articulated version today.
