    Default Superman SBS

    Hi Gents

    I did this SBS many moons ago and it works great on spawning fish in still waters!!!!
    The Superman

    Hook: Streamer x2 Long
    Thread: Black
    Eyes: Dumbbell
    Tail: Orange and Yellow Marabou with flash
    Hackle: Grizzly Hackle
    Rib: Red copper
    Body: Spun Peacock hurl and Cock saddle
    Over wing: Orange Dear hair
    Under wing Yellow Dear hair
    The design is basically the same as the pancora bugger.

    Step 1
    Tie-in a small loop of mono once the hook has been wrapped. This will stop the marabou from wrapping around the hook.

    Step 2
    Tie in the marabou tail and flash

    Step 3
    Tie in the dumbbell eyes and copper rib

    Step 4
    Tie a noodle with the peacock hurl and thread forward

    Step 5
    Tie in the grizzly hackle behind the eyes and palmer back. Wrap the copper wire forward to tie down the hackle.

    Now the Pancora bugger is done… time for the super man.
    Step 6
    Tie in the yellow under wing of dear hair just longer than the hook shank

    Step 7
    Tie in the over wing of orange dear hair and tie off

    The super man is born

    The dear hair acts like weed guard so it can be fished almost in structure. The fishing method for me has been to fish on a floating line. Let the fly drop. Give it a sharp 15cm strip and let it sink again. As a result of the wing and hackle, the fly pushes a lot of water and suspends in the water after every strip before slowly sinking. It has been a killer! I hope it will give you as many fish as it has for me

    Fortunately I think he means it works on trout in a stillwater that are horny as hell and wish they could be spawning.

    Personally I find this patter to be far more successful on spawning fish :wink:

    Red and in sizes 1/0 to 3/0 are most productive....

    Very akin to a Pancora or an Adolf, both of which work really well when the stockies are horny.
