Blood Worms Are the Theme for Fly Tying Monday on December 13th at 7 pm


I always have blood worms along whether I am fly fishing in either lakes or rivers. They are a staple for trout, walleye, whitefish and pike.

On Monday December 13th, we will take a look at several bloodworm fly patterns.

We will be tying Jerry McBride's, Bionic Worm with a head Turner Bead on a jig hook; my super simple blood worm, John Kent's seal bloodworm and I will talk about acetate floss blood worms and of course squirmy wormies.

What will you need to tie along?

-red thread-UTC 70 or 140
-lead wire or equivalent-0.015
-red marabou
-pink marabou (optional)
-red stretch flex
-gold flashabou (optional)
-orange and a red (gold will do too) 7/64ths bead
-red seal or something buggy that is red (brill, semi seal)
-C49s size 8 hook or a jig hook size 10; and a Daiichi 1760 size 14 (or equivalent)
