This is the one I mentioned in my post.
Here's one tied on a size 34 Mustad 3777. You can see the hook better
in this one.

I think the hook is sold mainly in Europe as a live bait hook.

Folks: I had a fly rod as a teen, and fly fished a little
with my Uncle, but the last two season have been what I
call my "first and second real seasons" And, I
concentrated on flies for bluegills, cause I like to catch
a lot of fish... But, now I want to catch some big fish as
well, so I am trying some of the bass flies..Now, the last
two years, i caught an occasional largemouth on my
bluegill flies... But, can you tie flies that will catch
both equally (or nearly equally) as well??? Or, , for
example.. i tied most of my flies on size 10-16 hooks..
And, the bass flies are tied mostly on size 6 and
bigger... So, could I tie a bass bug, or clouser minnow ,
etc ect, in a size that is in between the 6 and the 10 and
catch both???? I guess you could say I want to "have my
cake and eat it too" LOL..Oh, and if so, which are some
good patterns??? Thanks, Chuck
Chuck:
I use a Sneaky Pete style slider that catches both bass
and sunfish. It's tied on a size 30 Mustad 3777. The only
Mustad I've ever used that's sharp right out of the box. Now
don't let the size throw you off. I just checked and it's
close to a size 4. The fly itself is about 2 inches long with
legs and tail and works equally well in catching the bluegill,
green, pumpkinseed, rock bass, smallmouth and largemouth in
the local creek I fish. I tie in Flo Yellow, White, Black and
Fire Tiger and Orange Tiger with the Flo Yellow the most
effective.
