Johnny!! I like this tie ALOT!

Looks really easy to crank a bunch out.

hahaha, Thanks Alot

Your correct, the fly is a quick tie for sure. Ill have the H.T.P. Trout bane up in a little while. I think you will like that one as well. The trout sure do.
 
Johnny,
I am not breaking you balls.....I love that fly...I was given the exact fly earlier this summer by an older well know fly tier..No it was not Grobert..it is a killer when the hebes are out and about....nice fly.....yes it worked very well in skinny water....:)
 
That is funny since this is an old pattern of mine. I have made posts about it before, so it doesnt surprise me. And I am not surprised for whatever reason you dont wish share the party whom "gave you the fly", since your a big shit stirrer with me.

Who gives a shit about the older, more well known tyers? They aren't the ones showing the rest of us how to tie this now, are they? Keeping posting videos.

It's not that I care. I just think its pretty cool that my flies are getting around. It's quick tie that pounds fish, I'm glad people are catching on. I will keep doing what I do. Thanks for the support!

Not trying to stir shit...just noticed the similarities, and mentioning it was a fish producing fly....hell if I can catch fish with it, it must be good....:)

I'll share the name of the fellow, just not in a public forum....out of respect to him.

Hell maybe you could even tie this one.

I'm not sure what you are saying with this. If you're saying that you also like Stroup's jbug, then fine.
That's also a nice tye. But if you're implying that JU's trout bane is a copy of the jbug, then I disagree.

Both flies use pheasant tail for the tail and shellback, but other than that, they differ in several materials, and the trout bane simplifies the process (i.e. thread body, thread rib, and the way you make the legs) which makes it easier to tye in smaller sizes.
 
Yes, I learned from watching Johnny, I think that you just complemented me nicely!!

C'mon I Like in the BrownEye,this is a big boys forum. Is that really all you have? It sounds like something Aye Kay would say. Speaking of, where is he?? I have not seen him around in a while. Ok, who is hiding him??

I like it in the BrownEye, you need to pay more attention to the make of the flies before you start to compare and/or point fingers at other tiers. Just sayin' dont want you to look like a BrownEye especially if you ARE a noob on this forum.

:nose-picking:
