Super fast smallie fly...

With the water FINALLY starting to fall it's time to think about some smallmouth fishing. Here's a super easy smallie fly you can whip out in no time...

Thread a bead on a size 2 or 4 hook.

Like with every fly wrap the shank with thread to keep things from sliding around. Then tie in a tail of mylar and just a bit of deer hair.

Tie in a piece of pearl core braid brown and wrap it forward to form a body

Next tie in a saddle feather and using hackle pliers wrap it around a couple times and tie it off

Ill often stop right there and use the fly as is. Sometimes I'll tie in a wing of mylar and a few whisps of bear hair for a different look.

I call the fly the Junction simply because thats one of my favorite spots on the river to use it.
