Hey Fly Tiers...What's In The Vise?

[Gremlin]

Oh yeah...I love the hoppers. There's a box in my vest most of the summer. I inevitably go back to swinging streamers most trips. I love fishing streamers.

Lost my container of dry flies in the river 2night, bye bye all gone. That's OK never had luck with them anyways. Woolly Buggers Rock!!! Is there a better fly out there?

Ok guys, I need some advise, would like to get a new tying vise, got enough other "vises"
I have an old Herters vise I bought back in the 70's, and a newer piece of chinese crap that the hooks move
all the time in. I can't justify spending the $200 on a good one, anybody got any recommendations.
I got a new fly I need to post pics of, real simple and should work well for mixed species, as well as a really good
flosser on the Salmon river

Tried the Clouser on my last three or four outings, nothing Maybe I'll give it a few more chances before i retire that fly too

Just started tying bucktails a few months ago. I was going through some of the pictures you guys posted they are awesome. Maybe some day when I get real good with the bucktails I will try to do some flies.you guys have some great looking art.

What kind of water are you fishing?

What clousers are you trying?

RG

[Gremlin]

The Mohawk river and Barge canal, plenty of bass in both. White and chartreuse, white and brown clousers that i tied (maybe that's why they don't work) sizes 4 & 6. Been catching everything that swims in those waters with a #10 olive woolly bugger.

[rgfixit]

Downsize!

I've caught more bass on these flies than any other in my collection.

#10 and 12.

Maybe that Furled Leader guy will dig up a couple of samples for you 
RG

[Gremlin]

OK, will do .
It seems like every video i watched on Youtube, they were tying those clousers on a big hook.

[rgfixit]

That's for the movies. This is for real I have my leader jig set up.  I have a couple of promises to keep

I've never put up a Utube video...but I'm thinking about it.

With thunderstorms this morning Im stuck inside to tie. I made a few of each of these to use later in the fall. I fish this using a spinning rod, add a split shot 12" up from the hook and jig horizontally. Its always good for walleye and smallmouth. My father fished bucktail streamers a lot in and around the Binghamton area in the 30s & 40s and called these Susquehanna Streamers.

been hitting my  river  pretty hard  using a  bead  head hares ear style  scud  and  hammering  good  bluegills  size  12 and 14's  the  fish seem pretty  forgiving  and  i don't  think a  exact  match is  very  important   ..................on  top water  black  foam  spider  and  a  whitlock hopper

I was out using a clouser in a stream that was up and fairly fast for this time of year. Slow swinging drifts yielded some nice smallmouth and rock bass. I picked a few dozen crayfish for tomorrow morning as a bonus.

They would work well for shad on the delaware
