those roe fly's look good.

I have a question for all the veterans out there.  When you tie on a single jensen egg and a piece of wool, what is the wool supposed to represent?  fish spooge?

Roeseph, my best guess is it imitates the roe skein.

Nope... stretchy clear cord...
Yea the tie def worked better than I even thought it would. Pays to try whatever is on your mind in front of the vice!
Never seen anything really like it and I'm glad I tried tying it up... and spent time field testing it!

It would be cool if you took your fly over to the Fly Fishing Cafe and give a demo on tying it for the people that can't figure it out and might want to try it on the vice...just a thought. :)

These Roe Flys work amazing! I was lucky enough to get a couple freebees from the guy. The first time I fished them I hit a fish behind ED in water he had just gone through with his own Roe Fly... ;) But it was all good as he had just took a hatchery fish.

I havent fished a Roe Fly for a week as both were lost to fish, one was hooked deep! The other broke me off as I was taking pictures of the Fly.
There great, waiting to get my hands on more! ;D
