time for a NEW fly !

[saltydog]

O.K. heres one I did a while back an just found it in my pile, it's a BROKEN BACK BAIT FISH. as you can see the top one is the regular tie, so any COMMENTS Good, Bad or Indifferent,
GOOD LUCK GOOD TYIN

Is that one hook or two? Or a very long shank and a very high tie in front? Intrigued with the tying steps.

looks good but just my .02$ you can achieve the same effect you are going for with a tube fly if its tied the way i think it is any further info on the tie would be great..

[saltydog]

ROWDY please explaine that to me. better yet got apic, Ive done tubes an how would you get them to swim or bend in the water like that?
GOOD LUCK GOOD TYIN

if you tie 2 seperate tube flies and put them on the leader back to back without the use of the rubber tubeing to hold them in place i have seen some eels done this way with up to 4 tubeflies back to back. so you can make em shorter and longer as you see fit.

i can not see how your fly is tied in the picture. maby i am wrong.
can you explain how you did this ei. one hook or two? first half tied on wire and second on hook?

i will get some pics of what i am talking about to show ya what i mean.

i wasent trying to discourage your fly i was just noteing an observation hope ya didnt take it the wrong way

ROWDY, sounds INTERESTING will look forward to the pic's
as for the one I tied the one on the BOTTOM is the BROKENBACK
there are 2 ways to tie it, HOOK UP FRONT W/ MONO BACK
or MONO FRONT, W/HOOK BACK , w/ the weight in the back you can TURN the front part an the back wount turn, heres another way, I have found if you tie material on the Hook an Mono SIDEWAYS so the fly lays on it's SIDE, you can DRIFT it an TWICH it as a REAL BrokenBack. hope that helps.
GOOD LUCK GOOD TYIN
