    sorry, I hope I am not annoying. But I trimmed my lil baitfish to make it look better and my wife has some spray glitter glue. I shot the top of my baitfish to give it more of a mullet look. I am curious how it will do in water.

    The glitter will fall off eventually but on the positive side it will add flash and as the glitter falls off it will appear to look like tiny scales to a predator.What material is that?I'm going to shoot you a PM.

    EP Fibers 3D Enrico Puglisi - Baitfish Belly Cream but I am not sure if I like it all that much. What I do like is the deceiver fly. The white feathers (I think they are rooster hackles- is that correct?) and the bucktail. Looks great in the water. I ordered some rabbit strips to do some zonkers. I used to fish zonkers for largemouth a lot. I just got a package with baitfish emulator and some fishskulls. I will post a pic as soon as I am done tying one.

    If you don't like the EP fibers the other place I sent you a PM about is probably the same stuff only cheaper it does have it's place though.

    I am probably tying it wrong- But when it's wet it doesn't flow like feathers or hair does, well it does just not as smoothly.

    No it doesn't you can try tying some white bucktail under the EP fibers for support or tie down a mono loop off the back of the hook

    ok got another one.Baitfish. I used baitfish emulator for the body and polar flash for the top in aqua rainbow. I used huge eyes. I wanted to see how the UV knot sense works. Man it is harder than it looks. One of the eyes started to curve from the glue but I got it to cure before it got too bad. I am not entirely happy with the choice of a red eye and the size of it on the fly but hey that's what experimenting is all about. Click image for larger version.

    Here is the baitfish emulator fly. I think the long fibers will get caught up in the hook. This is the 5.5" long. I think the 3.5" long would be better for 2/0 and smaller.

    This is the shniz-it. There are a ton of peanut bunker around now. perfect match. Throw it from back bay bulkheads and near bridges at night you should score.

    less is more is what I always hear. It is also something I need to learn when tying. here are 2 flies. The top one is a peanut bunker, the bottom I figure could go either way- peanut bunker or mullet...what do you think? Tied on a clouser format.Click image for larger version.

    You say you just started tying? I have friends who have been tying for years and their work isn't as tight as that. Looking good.
