Last night, I spent some time on the vise turning out some of these little devils. I had some hooks that I had already attached yellow eyes on and wanted to do something a little different than what I had done in the past. With spring rains and higher, murkier water on the horizon, I felt like an almost all black SBS variant made sense. Bass and trout will both hold up in shallow water and ambush dark-colored prey that comes cruising by. I figure this streamer would work on both. It can be fished on floating, sink-tip, and full sink line and is tied on a 1/0 hook that rides point up. Also, and I'm not exactly sure how I pulled this off, most of the flies I tied last night look mean as heck. This fly looks like he has some sort of scowl on its face and looks ready to wrestle with some bigger fish!
