Streamer flies for Pike

Hi all.

I have been tying up a storm lately and have had loads of fun tying Streamer flies for the local Pike to (hopefully) have a chew on.

These flies are a pleasure to tie and fairly easy as long as you get the proportions right. The action varies with each fly depending on hook size, dressing etc. and half the fun for me is seeing them in action and working out how to improve them.

Give them a go and see how much fun they can be....

Bend Back Minnow and Surf Candy

These 2 patterns where originally designed for Saltwater fishing, but as with many saltwater patterns they make excellent Pike flies.

The bend back has been weighted with lead wire and is tied on a Mustad 34007 size 1/0 and fishes with an excellent jigging action.

The surf candy has been tied on a size 2 short shank wide gape hook and is coated with 2 layers of Deer Creek diamond hard resin.

Hope everyone is well...:o)

I have been tying a lot of flies recently with rabbit strip and marabou as the movement you get with these flies caanot be obtained with synthetics. The flies are not as hard wearing as my usual synthetic baitfish but I dont mind changing out the fly every couple of fish or so.

Hope you like em.
