I’ve been asked by a number of folks about leader/tippet twist issues when fishing propeller blade flies. My answer has always been a small barrel swivel inserted between the tippet attached to the fly (black marker) and the leader (red marker).
Hi @ConnorBartel
Even wet and soggy, these cast on less than a 6 Conner. Whatever rod you currently use to cast a cone head bugger will work for these. The two beads and the prop are small and add little weight.
Please recall that while these prop flies tied in Bugger fashion are similar to other prop patterns I’ve posted, they are still prototypes. The previous props have been fish getters and I suspect these will be too but I’ve no actual experience with them.
