![]() Catch a bunch of fireflys and pinch off their tails as you need them. It will glow. Then put it on an adams. Or would this be considered bait fishing?

'Steeves' Firefly \"Fly of the Week #1 - FAOL' (http://tinyurl.com/6pfyja) If you go to your nearby fabric store you may find some glow-in-the-dark cross stitch thread, in several different colors. (green, yellow, blue, pink...) Use it to tie an underbody on the back half of your favorite long-bodied beetle pattern. I use foam, myself.

![]() tied up a couple simple foam beetle-type imitations yesterday to try out...missed a couple of smaller strikes, then as one last stop before heading home, it got whalloped by a 14-16"er. First trout I've caught on my own tie (other than trolling streamers). medium brown foam (with bright red for vis.) hot-yellow ice-dub butt peacock herl needless to say, it was satisfying, and always exciting to get them in the dark. tied up a few more last night adding some black hackle for legs. -- eddavidson9 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eddavidson9's Profile: http://www.njflyfishing.com/vBulleti...hp?userid=2205 View this thread: http://www.njflyfishing.com/vBulleti...ad.php?t=15048 ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |
