  1. Would love to know more about that fly pattern at 1:19! LMB are my favorite species to fish for and I’ve been going after them with a fly rod for over 25 years now and that fly looks like one I would like to tie and throw. Nice, simple and chartreuse! Looks like it would ride just sub-surface or maybe on the surface depending on what it’s tied with which is my favorite way to catch them. My goto fly is a chartreuse seaducer, but that looks quicker to tie and like it would fish similar to the seaducer.
