Awesome! Nothing better than making your own baits, and then catching fish on them.

Have you ever tied any flies for calico or SBB that are somewhat weedless?

I actually caught some saltwater bass on some flies that Defjack tied which were very crude but worked on my conventional gear in SD Bay.

Yeah definitely! I have old steel guitar strings that I use. Works great! I just bend it into shape and tie it to the neck. It covers the hook until a fish bites down. SBB are a blast on the fly!
