It is a big bulky fly and probably best for 9/10wt.<BR/><BR/>I didn't use them last week...I threw flies/baitfish imitations which would be perfect for stripers: Sea Habit Bucktails and Flatwings in yellow/white, and red/yellow/white. <BR/><BR/>I often tie my flies on a sparse side, so that they puff-up while in the water, but compress easily for better casting. <BR/><BR/>Vladflyfishingunlimitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13795514777903025626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23668746.post-67125011290553662032008-06-01T09:38:00.000-04:002008-06-01T09:38:00.000-04:00Vlad,I was wondering have you Dahlberg's diver pat...Vlad,<BR/><BR/>I was wondering have you Dahlberg's diver pattern for pike? I saw them from Larry Gahlberg's TV show. And the action is amazing too...

Maybe the big musky will attack our flies...who knows?<BR/><BR/>Thanks again, my friend!<BR/><BR/>Vladflyfishingunlimitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13795514777903025626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23668746.post-69028643495549675712008-05-30T09:42:00.000-04:002008-05-30T09:42:00.000-04:00Vlad, we were fortunate to have a fine, wind-free ...Vlad, we were fortunate to have a fine, wind-free day on the water. <BR/><BR/>The fish were cooperative as was the weather and the lack of other fishermen made our day all the better. (It's not always like that!*G*)<BR/><BR/>I still think you outfished me, with some of your very good looking, well tied flies making the difference.<BR/><BR/>I'll just tell you the same thing I tell my kids when I get outfished..."You got a good guide!" *wink*<BR/><BR/>Lets do it again!<BR/><BR/>Jeremy.Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15722274850157233334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23668746.post-70795226976385754972008-05-29T22:03:00.000-04:002008-05-29T22:03:00.000-04:00Thanks Mark!

Pike are amazing-the whole experience was very similar to SWFF, indeed.flyfishingunlimitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13795514777903025626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23668746.post-66865111311501935362008-05-29T21:46:00.000-04:002008-05-29T21:46:00.000-04:00Awesome report!!

It should give you some saltwater fishing... : ) I bet the strikes are as cool as their lookings! Beautiful and amazing creatures. I am glad you switch to graphite...I like to change rods between glass and graphite too... it give you different paces. I feel I was using different muscles and "minds" when exercise different materials... all good! :) Great report! Vlad, I enjoy it!
