Recently we did a segment on the Sneaky Pete fly. The response was surprising. One customer suggested we create a Sneaky Pete Assortment, here it is, 5 of the most popular Sneaky Pete’s in a reusable fly box for only $25.65. See all of our assortments at www.BreamBugs.com, they make great Christmas gifts.
The Sneaky Pete has a bullet shaped, conical designed body and is sometimes referred to as a “slider”. When stripped the unique shape causes it to slip under the water as opposed to “poppers” which create water disturbance. Best fished on calm water. Use the strip, pause, strip technique to attract bluegill, large and small mouth bass. BreamBugs has nine different styles to choose from. Style #2555 in hook size 8 is our most popular style Sneaky Pete. Check them all out at www.BreamBugs.com

The BreamBugs technical staff had another successful trout fly fishing outing. Five of us caught a total of 69 pounds of Rainbow Trout in two days of fly fishing. Largest trout caught was 3.5 pounds. The most productive wet fly was our Marabou Skunk, Black and White, short streamer and the most productive dry fly was our Olive Hopper. If you have never been to the Rockbridge Rainbow Trout Ranch – – – plan a trip, you won’t regret it. See all our trout flies (and bluegill and bass flies, too) at: www.BreamBugs.com
A custom made wooden barrel made from Birdseye Maple. The pocket clip is a fly rod. The top of the pen is a reel with fly line and a fish! The base of the pen is a fly fisher netting a fish. Each wood grain barrel is slightly different. This is an excellent gift item for the fly fisher who has everything. More details about the pen at: www.BreamBugs.com
At 6:00AM the air temp was 72 degrees and the sun was still behind the trees. Using a vintage 2 piece 7wt Eagle Claw Wright and McGill rod and a Bea’s Popper #15 hook size 8 I caught 35 bluegill and 4 nice bass before 8:00AM. Very little wear on the popper. Even with only one eye left it was still catching fish! What is your story? www.BreamBugs.com
