Clear Cure Goo System


Well...right around Christmas I got a Clear Cure Goo UV system.  I never really got around to trying it until a few weeks back.  Turns out the light/torch was defective.  Flat out didn't work.

I called the local fly shop where I purchased the system and I was out of luck.  After striking out with my local shop I turned to the manufacturer and they promised to replace the light as long as I emailed them a picture of the defective unit.  It has been a few weeks and still no replacement.  Wasn't a cheap setup and I am bummed things didn't work out.

You win some....you lose some.  Make sure you buy stuff like this from a place that will work with you.  Dealing with the manufacturer can be a long haul.

Hard as Hull got me this far and it looks like it will for years to come.

Swimming Crane Fly Larva by Tightlinevideo


Another super basic, durable fly pattern by the folks at tightlinevideo.  Looks like it would be a winner for all kinds of fish.

Wee Willie Wiggler - Craig Riendeau


Look like a fantastic bluegill fly!  I am a huge fan of Craig Riendeau, he is a great designer.  His new Darth Baiter pattern in the Summer 2015 copy of Fly Tyer looks like a real winner for largemouth.

Looks like the Squirminator, but I believe Craig is the original creator.
