Junk Yard Dog

Here is the new addition to the Anglers Choice streamer lineup, the JYD...Junk Yard Dog.  It is just shy of six inches of meaty streamer goodness.  Despite the size the fly is nearly weightless thanks to the mono dumbell eyes from Clear Cure Eyes.  The tail consists of marabou, polar chenille and fox tail while the front hook is just marabou, fox tail and Clear Cure Eyes.  The hooks are of course Gamakatsu as they are the stickiest hooks out there.  This is a streamer designed to be fished on full sinking line to get it to depth.  Once at depth the bulk of the head allows you to vary the retrieve, anywhere from a fast jerst strip all the way down to a gentle dead drift twitch, while still maintining profile.  This thing casts like a whisper and hooks like a jackhammer.

The fly will be offered in the six color combinations shown here.  Front to back they are as follows:  Tan, Cotton Candy, Yellow, Black, Burnt Orange and Olive.

Hypnot-eyes'd...the Goo is the Poo!

Had a package on my doorstep yesterday and was happy to see it was my replacement Goo from Brian Carson of Clear Cure Goo. I was just about out so it was great to see a bunch of new squeeze bottles full of Thin and Hydro staring me back in the face as I ripped the package open. The added bonus in this package was some of the new Clear Cure Eyes. I have been stoked to see them since Brian told me he was working on them...and they are AWESOME! I will get more up on them in the coming weeks, but could not wait to try them out so I tied up this beastie tonight with them.


Now I need to finish up packing and hit the sack. I take off after work tomorrow to head to Indianapolis for 'Indiana on the Fly', put on by Reel Women Reel Menof Indianapolis. Should be a fantastic show again so I hope to see some of you there.
