Yep it was me that tied the "Jitterbee". {:O) I never thought about using
live bait on my flyrod....I guess I think it may be a sacrilege and me
being hardheaded!! {:O)But I know people do it all the time. I did get a few
fish with a sinking fly that had black foam on it and rubber legs. MIKE

I can honestly say I've tried all of these and caught bluegill with

Note that Mike Bernardoni (mikeb) tied a Jitterbee for that swap.

Mike: did you think to try casting live crickets with your fly gear? I
would think any dark rectangular foam block with rubber legs would work,
