Trash Flies at Land O' Sky TU Sept meeting

Had a great opportunity to share some Trash Fly patterns at the LOS TU Sept. meeting. Myself and three other members did a tying demonstration at the monthly meeting. I shared two different tent winged caddis and a caddis larvae. Tyveks, dryers sheets and headphone wire insulation were put to work on dries and nymphs. I had a really good time :)

Recent trip to Douglas lake and Tailwater

Couple of firsts. First sauger and white bass on a fly.

New Dryer Sheet application

Jay 'Fishy' Fuller has created in my opinion one of the best Hopper patterns out there. It produces both warm and cold water fish well. He has added a wing material, wing to it over time. Well he a Trash Fly material switch up for it. Try a used dyer sheet for the wing case. Looks good and holds up pretty well.

Cut the sheet into a strip as wide as the hoppers back. Tie it down with last wrap of thread. When you apply head cement, super glue, or zap a gap glue it down. Try it. You have to love the look and you can't beat the price :)
