Tap’s Bug- Simple Deer Hair Bass Fly

by Wayne Mumford December 1, 2010

Right now those bass are clustered up in the deeps, lock jawed and doing nothing. What a shame. Oh, you might hook one while you’re hard water fishing, the odds being about as likely as catching a world record pygmy whitefish. So for now we plot.
