7" double articulated Thundercats Lion-O themed musky fly.  Being a huge Thundercats fan as a kid it was only natural to put that into some sort of fly.  I envision throwing this fly and anticipating a large predatory fish at the end of my line.  Will it happen?   I hope to make that a reality.  So before I wet this fly I will use the Lion-O sword of omens chant, modified of course.  "Fly of Omens, give me sight beyond sight".  Hopefully enough big fish mojo will be transferred to this fly making my life a little bit easier in the hunt for a musky on the fly.   Now available in the shop.

6/0 glow in the dark streamers.  These should get the attention of hybrid stripers, bass, pike and musky.  These use the Flymen Fishing Company fire living eyes and Letera's extra large Luminous Streamer Fiber.  Charge this fly with a bright L.E.D. flashlight for roughly 10 seconds or so then your ready to rock some big fish. 

Making up a ton of Luminous Dubbing(glow in the dark).   This dubbing makes great egg flies, egg veils, bodies and wings.  To charge this dubbing use a bright L.E.D. flashlight and hold your tied fly under the light for about 10 seconds or so.


Tying up glow in the dark mysis shrimp.  These flies are like candy to steelhead and trout.  Lake Erie has a population of mysis shrimp that steelhead gorge upon when in the lake but when they enter the tributaries not many fishermen take advantage of using mysis flies.  I have had many days on the water that have been saved by this fly.  These flies are great when fished in stained water, early morning or night.  To charge the fly for night fishing use a bright L.E.D. flashlight and hold the fly under the light 10 seconds or so.


Using the Flymen Fishing Company tungsten evolution stonefly heads to make up woven stones that will get slammed by some steelhead after this perpetual winter lets up and open water appears.  The evolution heads make tying and weighting a semi-realistic fly extremely simple.


2" luminous minnows(glow in the dark).  These flies use a #4 Flymen Fishing Company fish mask, ice living eyes and Letera's Luminous Streamer Fiber.  Smallmouth and steelhead beware.  Charge this fly with a bright L.E.D. flashlight for about 10 seconds or so and hang on.
