My 82-old-father has been tying flies for many years. Lately, he has
been tying flies with a Number 10 hook with a lead head at the eye and
white chicken feathers and/or imitation white fur. Does anyone have any
new ideas for making flies to catch Sunfish (also known as Bluegill or
Bream)? My father likes to fish for Sunfish more than any other species
of fish, so this would be a big help to him. He, and I, would
appreciate it if you could help us out.

Lawrence, your Dad is very wise. Sunfish are the best fish to fly fish for
and give the most fight per ounce of anything on this planet (IMHO). I have
some many wonderfuly fishing experiences catching bluegill on a fly. My
favorite bluegill fly is the Bully's Bluegill Spider by Roxanne & Terry
Wilson as mentioned in their book by the title Bluegill Fly Fishing & Flies:
Illusions in Fly Tying. I tie it both dry and wet and have had great
success. I do love catching them on dry flies.

Chris
