    Default How would you classify this fly

    How would you classify this fly, tied like a brassie. I just left the insulation on the wire, I landed my first largie on this fly.
    Don't get confused with my personality and my
    attitude...my personality is who I am...my attitude
    depends on who you are.....

    Simple and effective! If the fish like it, I like it

    Nice - I would classify it as a caddis.

    Another advantage is the copper gives it little more weight than when you use v-rib (without adding bulk).
