    Default Jig/Fly Help


    The other day on Douglas (Indian Creek) I saw a float coming toward me and I pulled it out of the water. It had two jigs tipped with minnows (one still alive). One jig was a chartreuse curl tail, and the other looked something like a Slab Daddy. It had a chartreuse head and a black body with a very fine chartreuse tail.

    Jump to yesterday. I had on a gray fly with a gray head on one pole, and a dark blue with a lighter blue head on the other. Nothing was touching the blue fly, only the grey. I switched to the Slab Daddy look alike and both pole were producing.

    Does anyone know what that Slab Daddy look alike is??? I looked at Slab Daddy's website and they don't have that color.

    Thank you for any help!!

    BTW - caught 13 with 4 keepers yesterday. Not the numbers you all put up, but I was very pleased!

    Could be someones hand tie. We have lots of guys on the jig tying/ lure making forum that tie to order. The gray one sounds like a Gray ghost that a lot of us tie, a constant in my box. Have a look around there and see what you may find.
    Creativity is just intelligence fooling around
