RE: [VFB] Gizzard Shad Pattern?

[Eddie D]

I would definatly go with the Awesome Hair patterns that DonO has already 
pointed you out to.  It's a wonderful product and easy to tie with, plus it 
looks great in the water.  Another plus is that Byard carries it!

I would think that Icelandic Sheep would be fine.  Even EP fibre's if you 
have them.  The way I tie my awesome hair/EP/ect style flies is have a 
colomn of white bucktail or white(almost clear) supreme hair at an angle 
other then along the hook.  I tie it in towards the rear.  This makes sure 
the material does not just all bunch down along the hook shank and I have 
found that it gives it a better profile, IMHO.

Hope this helps!!  Now, Back to the lake for some more C&W.  The big grass 
mats are just too tempting to NOT throw a scum frog in there, plus we're 
taking monster bass.  Shore line cover doesnt allow me to get a fly rod out 
there.  Fishin' is Fishin'!
