Fishing, my ongoing passion
My most recent fishing project has been the development of a technique that I call Micro Baiting with Vibes. This is turning out to be an exciting type of fishing and I will detail that in a future post.

This fly was out of left field as far as I am concerned and when first introduced to it had no great expectation of it finding its way into my fly box. I was wrong. The bright tinsel body certainly stands out and rather than spooking fish as I expected it seems to trigger a response from trout particularly in “smelt” water or slightly discolored or tannin water.
