Not bad for an amateur.

If thats as big as I think it is, then I think it will be hard to fling. I think that it will catch air and choose a path other than the path that you choose. I also think a redfish will totally destroy it if consumed.

A person that uses these...claims to have caught 70 redfish on one....next time you see a pile of epoxy put it in your mouth and see if you can destroy it

Chad in Virginia took a client out wan the client was excited about how well his flies were doing with catching Stripers. Chad told him they will eat anything. The fellow went on about the elaborate details of the flies and how they were intergral to the successful bite. Chad pulled his sock off his foot, cut out the toe and used it with a 2/0 hook and landed one striper after another. Moral of the his Story: Striper will eat anything when they are hungry.

Just looking at the photograph of those, they looked a little frail.

Thats all I'm saying.

Chalk I think those green ones mimic the greatest Redfish bait of all time.

So will trout,I remember leaving the tackel box one time with all the salty dogs,after we run out of shrimp and couldn't find a shiner anywhere one of the boys smoked Winstons so we tore off the filters and fanned out one end to make bucktails and finished up the day.
