Longhorn Beetle Tying Video

Tired of tossing the hopper ad nauseum? Don’t want to throw anything purple or pink? Want to turn heads at Izaak’s when you let the table know you caught the the Buttery Brown you were hunting for?

Yeah, us too.

Why not get behind the beetle. Only sage long term anglers on the Mo tie it on.

Which camp do you subscribe?

Longhorn Beetles work on the Mo. On the lower reach as well. Some down there with success. How about it? Is 2020 the year of the beetle?

Autumn has arrived. Trout love beetles.[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/122346646″][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Tying the Bubble Yum Scud

When you think about the Mighty Mo, and nymphing, you think of scuds, sows, and in the winter months…Pink!

Ninchs…I looked up how to make last names plural, so I think this is right…Bubble Yum Scud today on the HH Blog.

Check this baby out. It has a heavy tungsten bead to get you to depth rapidly. And if you are not a fan of using split shot to get your flies into the zone, you will love the Bubble Yum. It’ll get you there.

A guide fly for sure as this is commonly a pattern that lives on the upper end of many Missouri River full-timers nymph rig.

Scuds catch fish on the Missouri River. And many other similar resources around America.

Get this kit for your Holiday tying sessions!

Fruit Roll Up JAV Video

Love this pattern. Has been responsible for many trout during the Swing Season.

You like stripping? Yeah, we do too. It works!

Tie this feller up this winter or this late fall for 2019, and the future. 2020! It’s right around the corner.

Buy one for yourself and one as a gift!

Integrate differing colored beads, body color, tail. A fly you can run with. And pretty easy. Remember to spend your dollars with the shop that provides your daily Missouri River entertainment. Yessir. Right here at HH of Craig. You can out a few gallons in the tank with every purchase! Need gas to drive this bus man.

The Fruit Roll Up will be part of your streamer selection that you return too often. Or the Thin Mint. That is a winner too!

Tying Tuesday @ Headhunters of Craig

Tying Tuesday @ Headhunters of Craig

The Sparrow is a fly that flat out works.

Commonly swung through Missouri River Trout Spey runs.

Or employed with a single hander while fishing the RIO Single Handed Spey Line. Squeeky’s favorite single handed line for fall skinny water weed bed hovering, plucking, surprising, sneaking, stalking…

An easy caster, true feel, solid hook-ups. A line that makes me forget I’m tossing a streamer line.

Honest, that line is fantastic. Try it. You’ll like it. Line technologies continue to impress me. Whether it be from the gang in Idaho Fall or east of us in Michigan. While rod technologies move forward I could argue that fly line tapers, technologies, and applications are moving at a breakneck pace.

Whoa! Off track per usual. The Sparrow. Tie it. Fish it. Love it.

Plus how cool is it at the bar when asked what you were using out there today to state confidently…

A Sparrow Bro’.

This Jack Gartside pattern has fooled tons of fish. While fresh patterns will catch not only our eyes but the trout out there, classic patterns like the Sparrow never fall from style. So many of the current fly patterns incorporate flashy tunnel like synthetics. Not the Gartside Sparrow. Just the like the most classic of streamer patterns, ie Woolly Bugger, this fly hangs onto fame without contemporary bling.

After learning how to tie the pattern you can implement any color scheme you desire. Like the October Caddis would look dazzling to those trout with autumn caddis interests. Yummy!

The Sparrow is part of our extensive proprietary Fly Tying Kits line Just Add Vise. Check out all of the Just Add Vise Kits that include enough hooks, materials, and video to tie 25 flies!

Come by the shop and check out the Missouri River Canyons best trout spey fly selection. There is no comparison in the Tri-County region.

High water means more bigger bugs.

Yep. Big fly big water theory. Some say it. Some even mean it.

If you are headed this way in the spring, summer, or fall you may want to have this in your trout bag.

Nymph it. Streamer fish it. Jig it. Well shoot, float it.

Popular in high water situations and conditions.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=”https://vimeo.com/121432769″ video_title=”1″][/vc_column][/vc_row]

It’s Fly Tying Time Just Add Vise Kits!

It’s Fly Tying Time Just Add Vise Kits!

It is tying time in America! Post Christmas Blues got you down? Well perk up with the JAV KITS and tie up some spring and summer flies.

May of us try to catch up and prepare for the upcoming trout season by tying our asses of in the winter months. My theory has always been to tie a ton of the EZ flies. Then buy the hard ones. Any fly with more than 6 or more steps is something I want to get at the fly shop. So I tie a bunch of dirty worms, Zebra’s, Weight flies, Firebeads, ants, Buzzball’s and the like.

What do you tie at home. I know that before I became a fishing guide I tied lots  of short run patterns too. All kinds of creative dry flies too. Those days are unfortunately behind me and I miss them. I love to tie flies. A great evening journey along with a glass of brown water that sometimes lasts until the morning.
