Flies for Pike

[Irish Lurcher 1,013]

I have used this method for years and had some nice pike, biggest been 30lb 4 oz caught on a home tied fly on a smallish lake in Cavan, I tied the fly that evening and we headed to the lake and with in an hour my mate had this super fish.

 

Anyway anyone tie thier on flies, I tied these ones this morning, pissing rain here and cant get out.

 

Gis a good name for these flies and I will send them on to you.

nice flies there mate,i used to tie my own trout flies a few years back when i was living in scotland,havn't done much fly fishing since i moved here 12 yrs ago, great pastime,nothing better than out-witting a fish on your homemade fly,even better when it's your own pattern.atb

Yep, sure can't beat outwitting a wary trout on a fly you have tied with your own fair hands.......

Dont think I would have the skill to tie trout flies To small and way to stylish for my type of work.

Nice flies IL, I done quite a bit of fly fishing for pike last winter and loved it, sure makes a change from fly fishing for trout, the biggest I caught was 21lb 10 oz, never tied any of my own pike flies but I tie all my own trout flies. The best names I can think of for your flies are:

 

For the one in the vice on the first pic: FATAL ATTRACTION

 

For the other one: RED TAILED DECIEVER

I bet you can remember the first take on the fly, I remember well my first take, almost send me out of the boat with fright, the fly was on the surface and I was just about to roll it back out when a fine 9lb pike engulfed it, dont know why more anglers dont fly fish for pike, great names for the flies.

i used to tie trout and pike flys and have had some great fun flyfishing for pike they sure can fight on a small trout outfit

i only tie trout lures. i buy all my pike flies. i find a white body with a red/black head works best and shows up well.
