Great job nole Now if you can just incorporate a bit of "shuffle" along with the foot stomp and some decent banjo music..... you'll have the complete package!!

Not sure what it's called Supa but it's something I threw together with some EP Dub Brush. Really simple to tie and the reds, trout, and sheepshead eat it. It's close to a mantis or molting shrimp. Here's a shot:

comparing it to convential tackle (sorry to the fly purists) it looks like a rootbeer tube. I've never been able to figure out what fish think a tube is either, but they catch a lot of fish.
Thanks for sharing Nole; a truly inspiring post.
In the end we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. And we will understand only what we are taught.
Don't know what all the discussion is about in reference to what the fly looks like?? With them eyes, color, and the way it would move.....throw a hand full of em in the shrimp tank at Jerry's and they'd fit right in. (imo) Great job on the fly nole... Had an ole Business Prof at UCF who use to say... "WHAT'S GOOD...IS WHAT WORKS!"

Nole is not only a good fisherman, but a nice person...gave me two when he bought my push pole!
