This is another nymph pattern that spin off from the Jiggling Damsel that tie few years back... instead of using velvet rope as the abdomen, this pattern put in a wire shank to build the abdomen. weight it at the hook with lead wire and a small bead-chain.... suggest to make it slightly heavy as I would like it to bounce at the bottom with the hook point up. You can play with darker chenille colour to create giant stonefly nymph in dark olive, grey of dark brown.. or even try in chartreuse colour too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you can also make the abdomen wider so it looks like a dragonfly nymph... </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I always like to put in a hot spot ( orange colour ) to attract more attention</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The version 1.0</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Year 2012, we had a International Fly Fishing Festival in Malaysia... one of the fly tier from Japan, Yusaku Tsutsui from Osaka amazed everyone with his foam popper and crease pattern.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The original pattern by Yusaku</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
From Yusaku's idea.. I did some modification, replaced the hackle tail with fibers and bigger boddy for better flotation..I tie it bigger to suit our local water and to hunt for GTs... tested the version 1.0 pattern in Seychelles and it was load and attract many fishes but the hook up rate was not very good.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to look into an articulate version, with a hook extended out from the body. the version 2.0 </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In this tutorial.. it was tie with 4/0 hook... you can actually enlarge or shrink it to meet your requirement.. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Popping.Minnow version 2</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some time ago, I tied up the 1st version of Popping Minnow using ready made foam head</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gSjW3KeB6qs/WWXMYxurpgI/AAAAAAAAE6Q/4R1hugwTpJ8EgkRnmDI83NgqSoDbUVjAgCLcBGAs/s1600/7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="758" data-original-width="960" height="252" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gSjW3KeB6qs/WWXMYxurpgI/AAAAAAAAE6Q/4R1hugwTpJ8EgkRnmDI83NgqSoDbUVjAgCLcBGAs/s320/7.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The 1st version was tie fully with synthetic fibers like Predator fibers or Baitfish Fibers... great action and easy to cast.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But due to the size of the foam popper head that available from our local fly shop, the ideal size of the pattern limit to 2" - 4" max in length.. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The pattern also used a lot of material, almost half a pack of baitfish fibers just to stack and tie the body and tail... </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

So I started to shape the head from foam cylinder, to create bigger minnow pattern for bigger species like Sailfish and GTs. The idea is to introduce saddler to minimized the foul on hook,
use less material to stack the body, put in additional shank to reduce the hook size and re-position the hook, ( Big foam popper head will block the hook gap unless you are using very big and wide hook ) </div>

So I took my old crayfish patter - Furry foam crayfish</div>

put in some fur and dubbing to give it bit more 'life' and action with more buggy look... replacing the chenille legs with soft sililegs which move very well when strip... </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Few years back, when I was fishing in Maldives... one of my buddy caught a big GT on a really shinny crab pattern... and the best thing is.. that shinny crab pattern landed many bonefish and different species in Maldives.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
since that day, I've been wondering ... why..??? No answer..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Maybe they like to go disco... 😂 </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Found one of this tubing which was sent to me by Deer Creek in the drawer the other day, and immediately I know I found the right material for my own 'Bling Bling' Shinny crab pattern.. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wooooow.. lets go party... it's DISCO time..!!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
So... the challenge is on..!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After many attempt... from 5cm... slowly size it down to 4cm.. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for this version... I have put in marabou as tail, plus a little bit of Oposum fibers to keep the marabou in place... playing with UV ICE Pearl dubbing as the belly and Pearl lateral line with some UV enhancer fiber </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's not a difficult fly pattern but the size make it tough as you will need to minimized the material for 5-6cm when you tie smaller size.</div>

<b>Franken Mouse</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since my 1st trip to Mongolia in 2008, caught a Mongolian Northern Pike with a big mice pattern at the White lake, North West of Mongolia... I always wanted to tie a big mice / mouse pattern that have a big profile, looks alive on water, plenty of build-in action, light and <b>float forever</b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I still remember struggled with a wt10, trying to deliver the big mice pattern 50'-60' away... struggling because the mice become so heavy after it's wet.. ( I'm a lousy caster 😜 )</div>

Articulated mice pattern fished in 2008</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Years later, the ICE AGE mice pattern went tested with success, tie mostly in foam and synthetic materials ( less water absorbance )... float high, easy to cast and the head rise high just like a mice swimming, splash some water like a gurgle when strip hard...but this pattern have it's limitation... size depending on the hook.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
2015, a trip to Mongolia with Hans van Klinken... I notice that Hans was catching plenty of big Lenoks and Amur with extra large rubber legs Bomber ... ask what does the bomber looks like in the fish eye, Hans jokingly say : mice..!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes... it does looks like a mice when it's wet. with the hackle and rubber legs moving in the water.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I need a mice pattern that is very <i><b>hairy</b></i>..!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After some study and picking up some ideas from the web, I decided to mix both foam and natural fibers for this pattern.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The <b>Franken Mouse</b> uses minimum deer hair, fur and natural fibers possible, to create the profile... minimize any material that will absorb water like hide or skin... inserting in foam for main flotation.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Foam mainly tie on top with a large ear profile so that the pattern will always float with hook down. Even when it land upside down, a strip will easily flip it over again. Articulated in 3 sections for more action with 2 hooks connected with a 180lbs hard wire shank.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hmmmm.... guess I've give enough 'life' to the pattern.</div>

<b>Lumino</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Lumino</b> - luminous bead hidden in the head of minnow fly pattern</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
is a pattern I came up while designing for a heavily weighted fly or jig fly where local commonly call <b>spin-fly</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b> </b> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted a pattern which have the same
shape but light enough for fly fishing with different sink rate. and
smaller in size too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using a luminous bead, It create a round head profile easily which push more water, hollow and less material, skinny tail and glow in the dark..</div>

<b>Spin-fly</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Spin-fly... with a round lead weight insert to an attached hard wire in-front of the hook.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
heavily weighted so it can be easily cast out with ultra light spinning gear targeting mainly bass and bottom fishes. the weight bring the fly down very fast ( this is also a good concept if you are designing a heavy fly to fish deep or in fast current )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The round lead bead in the front provide a good base to create a very nice round head profile</div>

This pattern is best tie from size 2" - 4"... by adding a lateral flash, you can tie a silverside, by tuning the wool colour you can easily turn it into a mullet or any little baitfish or minnow pattern.</div>

Cheers and Happy tying...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Years ago, I was tying realistic fishable Cricket X pattern, many friends been asking for a simple, effective and durable cricket pattern that can be tie in less than 5 minutes. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
especially for fishing Pacu where we lost the flies almost every bite.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In this pattern, and also all my terrestrial pattern... I have put in a piece of toothpick, to give it a good grip on the hook and foam... this will minimized the fly twisting around the hook. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It also maximized the gap of the hook. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

MagicHead Popper</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Trying to create a popper which wiggle, light and easy to cast... so I incorporate the Magic Head with a normal foam popper.. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The idea was to have a bigger head to push water left n right, so the popper would sort off 'shake the head or even walk the dog...<br />

Zonker Streamer</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nothing new about the pattern, many have tie streamer with zonker material. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This pattern is to imitate a a little brown trout or rainbow.. targeting bigger fish which feed on little trout in the river.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can play with Zonker in different colour to create different baitfish or minnow pattern</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The hook that I'm using here is a very strong but heavy carbon steel hook .. to counter the weight of the hook, I have a brass bead tie just opposite of the hook, plus a bead chain eye... this will not give you the jigging action but more steady swing in the same water level.. </div>
