Ed Materne's Pigtails is a Rhode Island striper fly dating to the post WWII period. It's also a pretty little guy. I just posted the fly tying video and step-by-step instructions. Click here...

Joe,
I truly admire your ability to bring us some vintage flies of yesterday and bring them back to life. Not only on great fly on Stripers, this fly I am sure would also be a killer on large mouth and if it was downsized it (# 6 hook) it would simulate the herring we see a lot in the coastal rivers here in Mass. It also would catch the heck out of white perch and Crappie. I am a soft-spot for streamers anyways. Thanks again for the history lesson and fantastic fly tying demonstration. Can't wait until next month's fly Gillbuster |
