Jr. was recently featured in the Fly Pattern Spotlight on the Southern Kayak Kronicles Blog! Our friend Joe Mahler hooked Steve up with the pattern and tying directions; looks like a winner to us!!!

New Flies From Jr.

wwcAdmin — Wed, 23 Jul 2014 03:38:49 +0000

Not only is fishing for bass and panfish one of the finest ways to fly fish but coming up with new flies makes the experience complete. We all have tried and true flies that we love to fish and consistently produce fish. However, when we know we have an ace in our back pocket we just have to try something new. It is this drive that gets our cognitive wheels turning. We sit down at the tying vise come up with a pattern and then hit the water with it. We see what worked or didn't and refine the pattern. Eventually, we tweak the pattern to where it becomes one of our "tried and true" patterns. Then we start all over again.

Jr. has to be one of the most prolific fly tiers I know. He is always coming up with something new and likes to focus on warmwater flies. He has two new patterns that he is having lots of fun fishing this summer; The Pill Popper and The Micro-Mini Frog. I will be heading out this Friday with Jr. to fish some of these flies and will have more photos of these flies in action. I might even scrape out some time for some video of the action of these flies. Regardless of how we do this Friday, we have plans to record these flies in the next week and will soon have some tying videos for everyone.

Jr.’s Bent Slider Video

As promised… I have finished processing the raw video Jr. and I shot a week ago on tying his Bent Slider. I removed all the really RAW parts and pasted it back together into something that looks like we know what we are doing. This was actually a fun video to work on as the fly is so simple and Jr. does such a great job of demonstrating it.

Sit back and relax and enjoy our latest video effort. Then head over to Cabela's to order some of these floating Jig bodies and tie up some Bent Sliders for your water this summer.

Jr.’s Foam Frog

Jr. Burke and I recently sat down and filmed him tying his legendary Foam Frog fly. This thing looks like it could jump out of the vise and according to Jr. it rides in the water just like a real frog an comes alive when stripped. I was amazed at how simple this pattern is to tie. I can not wait to get some of these on the water this summer.
