Poor Man's Jassid
Hook: Mustad 94840 #14-22 Shown #16
Thread: UTC 70 Black
Body: Tying thread
Hackle: Black (oversized) trimmed top and bottom
Wing: Prepared pheasant "church window" Use flexament or equivalent to coat and shape.
Note: The original uses Jungle **** as a wing. This is a very inexpensive substitute. For very small flies you can use a Starling feather.

Is this a wet or dry? That SERIOSLY is the buggiest fly I've seen in a long time!

Mark,
It's a dry. For mainly late summer low water conditions.
The last picture is your fault, (no bobblehead yesterday)! That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Don't give him all of the credit. I warned you I was sending you some bad mojo. That'll show everyone out there not to mess with me.

GB.
Sorry, but if you had sent bad mojo over the phone via Sam, the fly would have ended up in my ear!!:p
BTW I still have those magnifiers and will get them to you one of these days.

I think if you were to fish it as is you would get nabbed for using bait in a fly fish only stream.:eek:
Nice subs for that pattern.

I like to think positve. Therefore, it is the largest thing I've ever landed on a size #16. :rolleyes:
Can't take any credit for the substitutions. I can't remember where I saw them originally.:bang:

Great looking wings Chuck.....and OUCH !! that looks :yikes:....OUCH!!!

Also, I did not pass on the mojo message cause I figured we were doing bad enough with out it yesterday. So, I just forwarded it back to GB so he could not wet his line this week before Fay makes it way up here :D

Chuck,

Hope that you're ok!

That looks painful.

I'm fine. The only thing hurt was my pride.:o It was not an "ouch" incident, it was more of an "Oh , gosh darn it!". Or words to that effect.:rolleyes:
Thanks for the concern.
