this mornings session on the ultralites

Managed to get out today for a few hours met up with my brother and we was away i told our kid i was gunna use only the perch jig flies to see how good they was

I showed our kid them and he did his usual grin if its not savage gear it wont catch sort of face ive tried telling him that u cant just stick with 1 lure and i thik he saw why toda...

Started casting out and on the 3rd cast was in nice pike for my starter

our kids face was a picture and the word fluked was chucked about i think lol just for fun i told him if i caught another pike id let him borrow the jig fly and like magic i was in not long after
by this point our kid was open hand waiting for the jig fly lol
and yes he managed to hook up with a jack no picture he's still scared to hold pike (theyve got teeth ya know) lol
then not long after he lost a good fish i was a bit gutted for him to be honest but we didnt blank a quick move onto another venue but that was dead brilliant mornings fishing and the magical gig fly roach patern Kato these are ace and i will be ordering more verry soon mate so will our kid thank you

Of all the mad lures and contraptions I've knocked up over the years I've never tried making a 'fly' on a jig-head. Come up with similar certainly with different materials but not quite the same.

I really should because I know how good jigs are (there's even an article of mine on this site about jigs) and how good flies are but just never got round to putting the 2 ideas together.

They look ideal for Winter too.

To be honest Andy they suprised me how good they was ive got some bigger 1's i bought ages ago and never used think they will get a wetting verry soon on the medium set up. Get some tied up mate i think what helped is theres not many people fish with pike flys near me so maybe give me abit of an edge different presentation to the normal shads and lures that get chucked about

Keep us informed if they continue to produce, even if it's wee stuff you're catching.
