Ace of Base
« on: June 30, 2010, 09:22:13 AM »
Came up with a secret new pattern that stuck a few pigs last night and thought I'd share it with y'all.

Trust me, it's really innovative and almost impossible to tie, but it WILL be a staple in every cat-on-the-fly angler's box sooner than you can throw an emoticon depicting a pissing monkey into your next post.

Ah shit I really gotta figger out how to use that spraypaint tool.

Man, you're supposed to black out the fly, not the fish!  Is this new secret fly called the Ace of Base?  I sure wish I could see it.

Right now throwin 6" bunny leeches on a sinktip is an 8wt job at least.  I wouldn't go eatin these fellers since they spend most of their lives below the sewage outflow but hey, we all live downstream.

Ha ha! This is true!
Nice, so I gots to beef up on the rod then. My heaviest artillery right now is a 9ft 5wt which I use on the LM bass and crappie in the Neuse River here in Raleigh, even she's undergunned, espeically when a 6lber is on the end...
I don't like catfish at all, the mother in law bitches that I spend so much time fishing and never bring anything home. I really thought I could poison her discreetly up in MD b';

2/0 streamer 4x hook, 3/0 brown thread base over lead wire wrap, black possum hair dubbing wrapped really thick, segment into uneven thirds, and zap-a-gap pieces of corn and peanut into the dubbing. Then fart on it and chuck it into the muck. I call it the Stinky Pete!
