Fire Bead Ray Charles Just Add Vise Kit

A fly that will get you through the winter. All winter. Pink is the theme for nymphing from December 1st until mid June?

We find ourselves using regular looking flies that represent insects beginning in mid March. But this gaudy beauty will get the job done for most of your days on the water for a while.

Still damn cold in downtown Craig. Polar Bear Plunge High Noon January 1st. You coming?

Tying the Pink Lightning Bug

Today on the Headhunters Fly Shop Blog we tie the Pink Lightning Bug. In conjunction with our popular Just Add Vise brand this video is purely simple. No talking, no postulating about materials, and no lengthly 13 minute tying videos here.

Short and sweet. Just the way you like it. Play it over and over if you wish without listening to the same lame tying jokes…what is a tying joke anyway?

This Pink Lightning Bug is one of the most effective Missouri River winter flies. Great anywhere, and any river USA. Pink is the color of winter. And all this time you thought it was the color of snow.

When snow is on the ground, think pink.

The Pink Lightning Bug is just one of the Just Add Vise kit members. Anglers and tiers also like the Rainbow Czech, Little Green Machine,  Firebead Ray Charles, and Kreelex for winter work. And do not forget about the Mozuri Minnow! All available at our online web store.

We think that Dangerous Dan Gard  brought this fly to the Missouri River. It really is a killer for 8 months of the year. November 1st through the historically high water month of May. Some even fish it into June. Others even longer. A fantastic fly for the subsurface set.

If you can tie this one you can tie the other Missouri River favorites like any of the Pheasant Tail derivations and the summertime trout finder the Purple Lightning Bug. Why not have them all in your repertoire.

The Pink Lightning Bug is not the only winter time fly of choice. Come in and see our vast selection of winter flavored flies for any winter fishery. Ninch, Braden, Sara, and Dewey can point you in the right direction. Pick up a couple Just Add Vise kits as well.

Fly Tying Night in America starts in January. Stay tuned for the Wednesday night tying sessions hosted by Headhunters Fly Shop.

Think Pink

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41aGCrXM20E”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Think Pink today on the Headhunters Fly Shop Blog.

PINK is in. The nymphing anglers we spoke to yesterday were all over it.

So were the trout. Pink is the color. We are headlong into December and the remainder of 2015 including the first several months of 2016 will be covered in PINK.

We agree. Headhunters is full of Pink too.

Think Pink with the Pink Panther.

 

Highs in the mid-40’s today not he water. Some wind will accompany the somewhat sunny skies. Some out there swinging, some tossing the goober with pink under it.

Good football today.

What are you doing? Plan to spend a little time not he water this holiday season. It truly is a wonderful time of year.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
