Name this fly!
I wish I had a prize… I don’t. But if you can figure out what this fly is, you will figure out what will be my next post or so!

Well, fishing and flies are two things I don’t claim to be an expert on, but,since you asked, I’ll give it a go. Your creation appears to have two beady pink eyes, and you caught it midmotion wildly flailing it’s arms. So, I’m guessing you call this the Sharptail Pink Eyed Spaz. Are you sure there isn’t a prize?
I like the name! But unfortunately, it’s not my pattern… I should have been more specific. This was a game like “Name that tune”…
Another reader nailed it right on… I will have a post on it soon!
I figured that it already had a name. Of course I would have no idea what it was, but why not throw my hat in the ring anyway, right?
Fly naming is a very fluid thing… we might be able to launch a renaming campaign if you would like
That would be such a gas! You could send me pics of your flies and I could post them on my blog with new and completely ridiculous names. You’re a genius!
I think that is an awesome idea! Let me get some pictures together… I can do a mirror post with the common names!
Oh my gosh! this could be so much fun. Of course, you know I’ll be totally stupid and try and find other uses for them, right? And give them really retarded names? I was wondering if you ever get out to Kearney? We should have a few beers if you ever make it out this way.
This will be fun! Let me put together some pictures of flies…
My parents live in South Central Nebraska, so I pass though Kearney a lot on my way to visit… sometime we will have to do that!
That would be so cool!
On second thought, if you and Little E ever want to fish near GI, I would meet you half way and take you to my favorite burger joint for lunch! Mrs E and Mr. Cheeky would be welcome to come, but they might be bored to death. Think it over and lemme know!
Little E ussually doesn’t make fishing trips that far out… Mommy is ussually with us when we head that way; and mommy doens’t like to stop and fish… but we will have to find some time to meet up!
I think a day of you trying to show me how to fish and me taking you shopping for girly stuff would be such a hoot. We could blog the crap out of that!
Sakasa Kebari.
Tenkara fly.
So i’m guessing you have gotten into Tenkara!
Cheers from Sweden.
Winner Winner!!!
I bought a Tenkara rod… still waiting on it to show up in the mail.
I am not ready to abandon my other rods by any means, but it looked like a fun way to mix things up! And I tied some tenkara flies to get in the mood!
I think you should name the fly “fish tacos.”
Ha! I like it! Maybe that is what I will call it from now on!
