Drakemag.com is a supplement to the Drake Magazine, a grassroots journal for flyfishing enthusiasts. It was founded on the principal that too much contemporary outdoor writing gives away all the answers to people who never learned what the questions were.
A few quick patterns from my last tying session. Inspired by Marty's last sbs of one of Sir Hogans patterns. Hope you enjoy the look.

Written by: Mike Lembke, Wollaston Lake Lodge If you're chucking the right flies, you can land huge northerns on a fly rod. Photo courtesy Wollaston Lake Lodge Over the last 25 years of chasing giant pike with a fly rod, I’ve learned a lot about what makes these creatures tick. I spent the first nine of those years as a fishing client of my favorite place and. . .

Here is a fly that has been passed around my saltwater boxes, into my smallmouth boxes. I was given a couple of these years ago, it was always the fly I just "Had" in my box. That is, until Gavin came in and grabbed the materials to tie them last year for smallmouth. A few days later we had a 2 boat trip, and he dominated on this little guy. Fast forward about a year, here I am getting ready for a striper redfish trip with Casey, I need a few popper for breaking fish. So I tied some up, super fast, simple, and fun to color. Materials: Hook: TMC 811S or TMC 8089 Tail: Craft Fur or Frosty Fish Fiber Tail Support: 20lb Mono Loop Body: 3/8" Foam Cylinders - White, Black, Chart. Eyes: CCG Eyes Step 1: Make a mono loop at the bend of the hook. Step 2: Take a small clump of flash blend out. Step 3: Tie in a small clump, you want this to be the same color as the bottom of the fly. Step 4: Tie in another clump of Flash Blend, the color of the top of the fly. Step 5: Wrap your thread forward, whip finish and cut off. Step 6: Take a razor and trip the front of the cylinder, cut about a 45 degree angle. Step 7: Cut a slit in the center of the bottom. Step 8: Slide the cylinder over the hook. Super glue it together, forming a slight curve in the body. Step 9: Glue on the eyes, then take either magic markers or Prisma marker and color. Finished Fly:

KEN SAWADA FLY DRESSING CONTEST
After receiving a number of questions about this fly, I decided to put together a tutorial for tying it. I have not seen it done anywhere else, though I’m probably not the only one to have had the idea of using glass beads for the body of the fly. Glass beads provide enough weight to... Read more »
