  • what kind of thread are u useing

  • 140

  • oh okay thanks.

  • Painting might not be as sexy looking as shiny molded eyes or whatever. But molded eyes are a pain to epoxy over. Paint forms to the shape of the head, and looks pretty decent when you get the sheen of the epoxy over it. Plus again, they're pike. They don't need much more convincing after they see something move. 99% of the time, it's dead meat.

  • what size eyes do you use?

  • I usually paint my eyes on before I epoxy the head. I use a larger finishing nails head for the white and a small one for the black pupil.

  • great video, I usually just do trout fishing in small streams but am branching out to pike and was trying to decide on a size for rod, reel, line etc. any ideas? looking for 30in in northern minnesota. thanks for any advice.

  • Good video! Thank you.

    I plan on targeting pike this year, and now I can tie some quick easy flies for them.

  • that was really useful video, before this i didn't know how easy it was to make even a simple pikefly.  thanks!

  • nice fly! i caught my first flyfishing pike a couple of weeks ago on a home made fly.

    i like this fly i think im going to truy it. ;D

  • awesome sometimes i just use a cross cut rabbit strip though for the body so everything is facing toward the hook bend
