Natural Magic

Natural magic!

When the game changer fly came out I was happy to see that fly fishing had caught on to the fact that rear weighted lures, even jointed ones, have a great random sideways running action.  I rely on this action most of the time when I fish for predators.  Even trout go nuts over this action, but when you have a special place in your heart for esoxs, you find love for a lazy sideways moving fly.  The Game Changer has this action, it also works well when speed up.  So I fished it and found one major issue, the synthetic material was limited in its action.  The action of the fly is based solely on the joints.  This is fine most of the time, but, you get limited flash, and limited sound.  How a fly sounds, as in how it vibrates in the water, is the most important part is fishing streamers.  So I decided to mess with the recipe.

What I came up with was a basic fly with three materials, plus eyes, hooks, and articulated fish spin shanks.  It looks like the magic swimmer from sebile lures in the water.  I call it, Natural magic.

The fly will turn hard to the right on the stop and the materials on it will expand, and then constrict on the strip.
