Pike season 2015

 Familiar area

 In the spring, flooded

 Bend-back fly with "swim bladder"

 The fly always swim with hook point up; the best weed protected fly there is! 

 After underwing of bait-fish fibers, tie in 3mm thick foam strip, just a bit short of hook point; this is the "swim bladder"

Finished fly with middle wing of silver angel-hair and top wing of dark bait-fish fibre
