Maybe they'll consider it a threat, and attack it.

Post by: MrsWTownsend on April 08, 2015, 11:58:14 AM: It totally looks like a bug. Funny thing, last night I watched an episode of "How It's Made" and fly ties was one of the topics covered. Coinky dink??? Perhaps... :D

If I were a fish I would try to eat that.

:LOLOL:

Post by: MrsWTownsend on April 11, 2015, 10:54:25 AM: 2 things I have realized here:

1- It looks like I smoked crack before posting my first comment and I didn't even remember seeing the fly before when I made my second comment. :Bash:

2- The original post was in December, 2014. :Bash: :Bash: :Bash:

So did you catch a fish with it????
