Careful what you wish for.You just might get it.

That's a big fat toman indeed. Yeah it's probably two separate Tomans that took turns to hit your lure, both are probably just as big for it to bite off the treble whole. Congrats on landing the Toman. :) For the record.Just before i released the Toman back into the water,i pried open its mouth.The...

Handful Of Flies

Peace wrote:It's very nice, thanks for sharing your fly with us. What did you use to hold the feathers onto the hook? It looks like some sort of resin.

I was given a handful of flies by my friend and this was one of them.

Peace, I took your advice on trying out different type of main lines and different sized hooks.I have tried hooks from size 2/0 to 7/0.Circle and long shank hooks.Mai...
