Ecduzitgood!

Recently,
Ecduzitgood gave me one of his hand painted mackerel plugs. He asked me to swim it and let him know what I thought about it. Let me say its awesome! I plan on fishing it this weekend!
As I was cleaning out one of my rooms to fit my new lathe in, I came across this herring fly. It was made with Yak hair and a tuft of rabbit fur. I made this fly when I was fishing the Martha's Vineyard fly fishing tourneyment a few years back.
Ed and I have talked about dropper flies for a while now and I'm thinking that this is the one that he needs for the fall run.

Thanks again Ed,
Mike

O.D. Mike,
don't know how big thats fly is BUT heres the scoop on DROPERS, TEASERS, MOST PLUGS are BIG, an the schools of bait are SMALL. so if you know what the bait is where your fishing thats the size you should be using, my Son has been Custom Tying them for guys who have requested them, an they are haven great SUCCESS of the beach.
GOOD LUCK GOOD TYIN
P.S. can you post a pic of the plug ???????????
