Grub tied on a black octopus hook - video

[StumpHunter]

Just added a video of a grub I tied using a black octopus hook size 4. When I seen the hooks I thought they would make a great fly tying hook and they did work for flies. Tied this fly to work for a grub. We have a lot of grubs, so now I have a good fly to try. Hope you enjoy the video.

Excellent tie and excellent video Ron. By the way I think that sucker would be a killer ice lure too.

Thanks JSC and papaperch.

Very nice looking fly and great explanation on the video. That would do well with crappie on one of the lakes i fish.... and be killer on smallmouth in the river.

Thanks Heath and Russ. Looking forward to getting these wet and see what the fish think about them.

Great-looking fly and a very nice video. You are inspiring me to pick up a fly rod again.

I plan on going trout fishing next week but not sure if I can get anything on the video camera but will try. Going to scout some rivers and mountain creeks I haven't fished in many years and I plan to take an friend with me that has never fished for trout. Bill is in his 70's so I hope to find some fish close to the roads so we don't have to go far into the creeks plus I will be teaching him about fly rod fishing. Should be a fun trip.

Thanks Pup. I don't use my rods as much as I would like to or should. Hope you pull the fly rod out soon.

Thanks for the video. I bought some of those hooks several months back. So I will give your grub a try.
