I've tied this on a size 6 with natural turkey marabou and it caught a ton of crappie!

@stevetrybalski3082 Год назад

I have a ton of natural turkey marabou in my stash thanks for the suggestion. Going to give this a try for my local waters!!

@SavageFlies Год назад

Cool to hear! I do see a lot of marabou tied on jig hooks too so I'll bet that would work even better for crappie. :-)

@pc5439 Год назад

Nice looking fly Matt. Always like the ebb and flow of Marabou as it glides thru the water. No picture, typical Arkansas weather, will add comments in package.

@tomcrowley9269 Год назад

a lot like the Ace of Spades style streamer. That one has half of the wing held down half way back on the body by the rib. It stops the wing from tangling.

@SavageFlies Год назад

I'd heard of the Ace of Spades but didn't recall it was a streamer. I'm looking it up now and yeah, that's a very cool pattern!

@FlyTyer1948 Год назад

Nice & easy. The peacock herl head looks really nifty. It provides a great contrast.

@SavageFlies Год назад

Thanks Bob! So what do you think about this one not being weighted? I imagine that after a cast or two the marabou will be wet enough that it'll hold water and sink, but I don't think tied as-is it'll ever get very deep. But the recipe did not call for any weight so I didn't put any on it.

@FlyTyer1948 Год назад

@@SavageFlies Since it seems to be designed as a panfish fly, I’m guessing it was intended to be fished somewhat near the surface. At least, that’s how I would fish it. If I wanted to fish it deep with added weight, I would change the body material & make it thinner like a marabou gray ghost.

@garrettswoodworx1873 Год назад

@doncogswell9596 Год назад

Perfect timing Matt. I'm off to the Eastern Sierras in 10 days and will definitely be bringing a few of these. Finally, something to tie with my yellow marabu. Do you ever use blood quill marabu?

@SavageFlies Год назад

That's awesome Don! Good luck up there. As for blood quill marabou, I don't think I ever have. I'm not sure what the difference is between that and regular strung marabou though!

@johnkies5343 Год назад

Simple but good looking fly. Would look great with olive, black or orange marabou. If adventuresome could tie a small hackle at head.

@SavageFlies Год назад

Or like a woolly bugger, add a couple strands of flash under the wing!

@leemowers9395 Год назад

Thanks Matt for another great looking fly. Simple yet should be affective. Always entertaining to watch, thanks for sharing. Just a point of procedure, you said counter wrap the rib, but you didn’t.😂

@warrenchester8467 Год назад

Amazing how things evolve in different places. If you stop this video at 3 mins (before the wing) and sub in a blue wire rib and bead it’s almost identical to a still water lure “I made up” over here which is so deadly I need to retire it although I have plenty of friends wanting it. Also works really well with black marabou and orange floss rib as well. Thanks Matt.

@SavageFlies Год назад

Those sound like some great combos Warren! I love any pattern with blue in it... they're so rare over here.

@joeduca8582 Год назад

Cool fly Matt. I learned that marabou body wrap I believe from Larry Tullis's Nymphs Tying And Fishing book a long time ago. A good read and a good book for beginners, which I was when I bought it. Yeah, marabou is a great material and versatile too. BTW that Lord Baltimore video was fun for researching the pattern, Prof Mayer, Lord B., the Oriole bird's name, and the statehood of Baltimore. I don't know if you got it, I still don't see it and I commented twice. I hope this comment connects. Looks like the no carb diet is working, better tighten your belt 😉Thanks for the inspiration!

@SavageFlies Год назад

Oh thanks Joe, another book I don't have! And Amazon has a used copy for about 3 bucks so I must get it. Thanks for the note on the Lord Baltimore... as much as I loath tying winged wet flies (I'm no Don Bastion), I did have fun with that one. I think a key would just be better duck feathers. Mine seem to be all crap. And that's all of them. Hareline, Nature's Spirit, and I think I have a few others that also look all misshapen. Now about your comments... I don't know what's happening there. I sometimes scan through the comments during the day (while at work and I shouldn't be), but you're always one of the early commenters. And I noticed tonight about 8pm that I hadn't seen you. I was getting worried there! Glad all is okay. :-)

Other than yellow what other colors will work for trout and or bass? Should the body be weighted?

@jasonsfishingagain312 Год назад

I was bored one weekend and just tied a bunch of flies like this, not following any recipe. I thought they looked cool but they don't fish real well. They are a bit hard to cast and unweighted tend to hang out in the surface film.
