At this year’s BreamBugs annual outing at Rainbow Trout Ranch, Rockbridge, Missouri, technical staff member David Miller received a water color painting of him catching a trout at last year’s outing. This painting was done by artist Bobby Walters of Hattiesburg, Mississippi. The largest trout caught this year was 3.8 pounds. The most productive flies were black wet flies, Black Woolly Bugger and the Black and White Marabou Skunk.

Studies show that the Mulberry is one of the Carp’s favorite food. This Mulberry Carp Fly is designed to look like an enticing meal for Carp. The Mulberry Carp Fly from BreamBugs sinks slow. See all of our poppers and files at www.BreamBugs.com. Do you have a favorite carp fly? We would enjoy hearing from you!
The new RIO Shimmy Leopard Spotted Frog is one of the new fly introductions from RIO. This funny little frog is weed less and easy to cast even though it is tied on a 3/0 hook. Try this one on those “hawg” bass. Find it under “Bass Poppers” on the BreamBugs web site.
Good question! Apparently, E. H. Peckinpaugh did when he started making poppers back in the twenties and thirties, with with Peck’s Lures. As well as Tony Accardo of the old Accardo Tackle Company. These red dots are sometimes referred to as “blood dots.” They are thought to excite the fish causing them to strike the lure. What do you think?

BreamBugs has developed a new version of the Popper/Dropper Rig. At the request of customers we now have the Popper/Dropper Rig with 10 Lb test leader. There are many advantages of the 10lb test. First, the stiffer leader keeps the two flies from getting tangled. Second, a 10lb test will help land larger fish. Find Popper/Dropper rigs under “Leaders” at www.BreamBugs.com
