OK guys,.... Now that I've joined the photo posting generation, I gotta show you my favorite Black Bass fly. My variation of the the Calcasieu Pigboat:

The lighting isn't the best but it's visible.

Hook: Gamakatsu, B10, size 1 thru 3/0
Thread: white, size 3/0
Tail: Latex Fly Tail, Chartreuse w/Silver Sparkle
Body: Pearl Estaz Grande palmered w/White Saddle Hackle
Collar: Sili Legs (full skirt), Chartreuse w/Silver Sparkle
Head: Cross Eyed Cone Head (nickel)
Eyes: Red w/Black Pupil, 3D eyes (molded)

Of course, the colors can be varied according to individual tastes (Bass tastes that is :lol: :lol: :lol: )

Hi Jay,.... Hadn't thought much about it until now.... Certainly could be a J-Pig. 8) 8) 8) Good company too.... :) :)

The beauty of the Pigboat pattern is the ability to include a number of features.... This one doesn't have a weed guard but could be easily added and a rattle could be easily included (in fact, I've already designed one that does). 8) 8) Can't wait until my next Delta outing. :D :D :D
