Custom Furled Leaders Any angler who has thrown a fly line knows the joy of a controlled loop and a fly that lays out in that right spot. More about Leaders What others are saying: Sweetness on the waters. Performance in Kentucky and Virginia snow. Caught my biggest trout ever... Great Leaders A Satisfied Customer Robin, I recieved the leader you sent me for bass. It work's great!! Turns over very nice and is surprisingly strong. For the fishing I do on my local waters,which this time of year is covered with coon tail and moss, I have no problem landing very nice bass right through it with 6 or 10lb tippet. There is just no comparison to mono leaders. The leaders you make are in a class all their own. The loop on the end makes it quick and easy to change tippets. I have stopped using mono leaders and use only your furled leaders for all my fishing, bass, trout, bluegill, catfish or stripers. There have been days trout fishing when I would use two mono leaders just from changing flies, adding tippet and repairing breakoffs. I can take one of your furled leaders, add more tippet when needed, and fish it for many, many trips. It is more cost effective for me to use furled leaders. Keep up the good work. Customer for life, C.A. In Memoriam I'll miss a great man.

Custom Flies tied to your specifications If you need a specific quantity of flies tied to a specific pattern or patterns....go to the flies page. I have a little more to say about things here Featured on Hook and Hackle Bluegill Fishing with Flies Start off with this little exercise if you would. Close your eyes and imagine a pond with willows overhanging the water. Trees have grown old and fallen in. One end has cattails and shallows. Dark, shadowy reaches beneath old growth stretch back away from the main body of the pond. Now, imagine approaching this pond early in the morning with a popper or dry fly tied onto your leader. What kind of bluegill fishing might be conjured to mind? Now put yourself out on that pond later in the day, sitting in a float tube with a sinking line and a nymph or wet fly pattern on the business end. Again, conjure up some great bluegill fishing. A six weight rod would be way too much for "All anglers are born honest, but they get over it" Ed Zern the popper/dry fly fishing. More like a three weight. The sinking line fishing might be another story, might need to go four or five, opinions vary, whatever works best for the angler doing the fishing. We invite you to make your way to the nearest pond in your area. Or perhaps a creek that flows through the neighborhood. There is so much quality angling that lurks near the average angler's home that they might be driving near to, or over, on the way to work every day. Here in Collin County TX there are innumerable creeks draining the area and finally making their way to the local reservoirs. I have been privileged to have fished a number of these creeks. A bluegill or a yearling black bass on a three weight is quite the thrill. All the while cars roar overhead down North Central Expressway. Let us know about your bluegill flyfishing adventures. We'd love to hear them.

Every day as he drove into work from his new place he passed by an Aggie's farm. The Aggie was out in his orchard using a sling and hoist .........(more)
