Super Sized Spoon Flies

coolrivertx · 02-10-2011, 07:44 PM

I am working up some bigger spoon flies, for bass and saltwater. From left to right - 6/0, 4/0, 2/0. Tied on Daiichi 2462 nickel hooks.

Those are some nice looking flies, how much rod would it take to keep them airborne?
I have a 10wt. but it's a lot of work........

Thanks, guys! It's been pretty cold here in Austin, TX recently, so this is how I spent some of my time. The 6/0's weigh about 5 grams, so I think a 10# will work. The 4/0's and 2/0's come in at about 2.5 grams, so I am thinking 8# will work. I think the snappers will smash these on our next trip to Pensacola!
