Synopsis of Class
|
One of the best times of the year for catching big
smallmouth is in the fall. As the water temperatures
drop and the waters clear, smallmouth bass are on the prowl
for baitfish. The crawdads are busy finding their
winter homes and the smallies have to fatten up for winter.
This means that minnow type streamer patterns can be very
effective. The important thing to remember is to make
your patterns in colors that reflect the types of bait fish
and minnows in your waters.
In this class we will be tying up four proven patterns for
smallmouth streamer fishing. By varying the amount of
weight on these flies you can fish them right on the bottom
or anywhere in between. They have wonderful action and are
fun to tie. The colors in these patterns can easily be
varied to reflect any type of bait fish.
The flies you will tie in this class are,
|
Clouser Half and Half

Bendback

Kruger's Thunderspin |
Walega's M.R. Crazy Eight |
