Some new colors that are simply deadly!
Tom Barton
Hey everybody! It’s been some time since I last wrote but want to thank everybody for all the orders and success stories associated with this amazing egg fly. Knotty Egg is still going strong and I have added a few very productive colors. Bright Roe and Oregon Cheese are two colors that are fairly new but have been in production for the past 18 months. Bright Roe has become my biggest seller as of late and has been a steady producer for me on all my trips to the Great Lake Tribs.
Also just added is Grape, Buttered Popcorn and Pellet fly.
Grape is a purple color and is very popular with Salmon fishermen and a color that Steelheaders use with great success. Especially during the slow periods of mid afternoon. One of those colors that just works when nothing else is producing.
Buttered Popcorn is a light yellow and I just started selling it this year. I’ve had more people text me and comment on fish caught on this color than any color I’ve ever had! Like Crème it imitates a sucker spawn cluster (Color) very well.
Pellet is a fly that I will put on my list because of popular demand. Looks exactly like a trout pellet that fish get fed in the hatcheries. (Works great for kids fishing derby’s or wherever trout are keying on the pellet food.) I have so much private message requests for the pellet fly that I am making it available to anyone who wants it.
In closing, I will try to write more. I hope everyone is staying safe during this trying time. Fishing can be a great escape and just the ticket for some soul cleansing to combat this Corona Virus. As of now all my orders are still mailed out next day as everything gets sent through the USPS.
God Bless and Let’s Get Knotty!
