The Bubonic Plague is an intruder that comes together quickly, and it certainly deserves to be fished with confidence.

The Float & Fly technique has been gaining popularity for one simple reason: it works! Watch as Matt ties his take on an introductory baitfish pattern, perfect for targeting trout and bass in lakes.

Maddies Midge. So simple a 7 year old could tie (or make it up), but a super fishy pattern for filling your box.

This is billed as a fly for steelhead, but trout of all shapes will love this crawdad/leach hybrid.

A juicy, gelatinous, quick sinking jig, it's a box guide fly that can be dead drifted, tight line, or swung before, during, or even after an October Caddis hatch.

A caddis nymph tied on a competition-style hook, but much buggier than you’re used to seeing in tight-line rigs.  We love that this pattern only uses a few materials and fills a box quickly.

It's nice to have a few "guide" patterns in your repertoire so that you can fish them with confidence and replace them with ease.  The Guide Sculpin is just that.

Joe Dirt is an awesome and versatile pattern for everything from bass to redfish to tarpon. 

This fly is traditional enough to satisfy the classic low-water swing fly crowd, but also adds in a little extra bugginess and flare.
