- A Minnow Fly that stands due to his legs on the bottom even in slow current it stays upright.
When using a Ahrex Texas Hook bent the hook point a bit to the left or right for better hook setting
Or Use a Gamakatsu Worm 330 Bottom Jig in 1/0 where the hookpoint is a bit higher than the eye.
Future Fly tungsten bead 4mm as weight and shrink tube as legs 1.5mm
Fly Fur
Head made with Monster Dub
Try it out!
Hi Jay, Thank You for the very nice videos!
How do you know, when the fly is on the bottom?
How do you identify the bite when you don't strip in?
What line are you fishing?
kind regards, Jannik :)
U usually feel the bottom when u strip in due to stones mussels etc.
It helps if you know approximately how deep the water is u r fishing of course and you can count in your head how long u let the fly sink to adjust it. If u can't feel the bottom due to sand you can sometimes see it by the tip of the line that's floating on the surface and gives a small cringle when the fly or sink tip line touched the bottom.
you usually just feel a pull in the line when they take the fly and if not u feel the fish with ur next strip ;)
Thank you! I will try :)
Do you cast it and let it sink to the bottom and leave it? What about weed? Good idea though👌
Yes exactly and then u can retrieve it super slow over the bottom.
The places where I fish it are weedless. But the material is protecting the hook point from catching weed and the legs are flexible so I don't think it's a prob 👍
