does anyone know where to purchase these flys????

Hans..... Are you getting out or trading up?

Went out for a quick trip with my oldest son and father last night. Set up in 60 FOW, looking for browns. The down temp was 48 degrees... so we started search mode. Found great bait in 70, began marking fish in 90 fow. After 30 minutes, Tyler caught a great king on the diver- out 165. 27 lbs- his biggest so far. Set back up in 102 FOW and immediately hit a small king, a brown that was 12.7 lbs and a 22 lb king. Great night on the water.... the kings are really staging early this year

After only being able to fish a few times this summer, we finally were able to hit the water and put some time in this week. Both AM and PM trips had marks and bait in shallow.... 70-125 FOW but the temp was all over the place......49 to 73 degrees on the bottom. We went East and West.... but had the same varied conditions everywhere we went.... We took fish on divers, riggers, and copper- but no real pattern.... some fish in temp, some out of temp..... flasher/fly and spoons were all taking fish...... Our biggest fish- 34.13 came down 77 feet over 82 FOW on a Finger Lakes Tackle Company mag spoon called the Black Meat Pounding Deep- super glow cup....... It was in 72 degree water and literally took less than 1 minute to reel it in, we actually thought it was about 5 lb brown based upon the way it was fighting (or lack of fighting)... when it surfaced behind the boat we were shocked to see it was a king. We were even more surprised when we saw how big she was--- a total slob.. I think she realized she was hooked after she hit the net, it took 2 of us to get it on board as it was fighting so much we thought the net was going to break......
