Teenmade mutant noble turtle

Well I’ve been saying it for, forever. A turtle fly. We all know muskie and pike will eat them, so why not make a fly for just the opportunity? A cheap flip flop square rounded out, plastic legs, and a redear slider belly sharpied on.

To quote Rodgerole,:[rodgerole] first bass I caught over 5 pounds had one in his gullet still alive

Cool fly. Can’t wait to see what eats it.

That is very cool.
Please try and submit it to the Fly Of The Week.

Tell us what it’s like casting it!

that was my first thought as well. I can see my leader now…

Nice fly - what size hook are we looking at here Panfisha? What colour flip-flop is it? It certainly looks good! :stuck_out_tongue:

Is it just me or did you purposely draw a face on this thing? Two eyes and eye brows on the upper right, big curved nose, and a big smiling mouth with two fangs or wiskers sticking out the bottom??? :stuck_out_tongue:

Haha yes it does look that way. Thats just how it turned out, I was using this photo as a model for a redear slider. http://www.bigturtleman.com/turtles/Baby-Red-Ear-Slider-2-BTM-2.jpg
It’s a size 4, and I went out casting with my 5wt using a swivel, and it flew straight like a Frisbee! Though it didn’t spin as much as I thought. And was a bit hard to get the rhythm down at first of getting it to fly right.:rolleyes:
