The mini Picker is just a slight twist on the Pocket Picker Perdigon. This pattern has been on fire for me this spring. Lately a lot of social media posts I have been seeing have been using oversized beads for the hooks they are on so I decided to see what all the craze was about. I have to say it worked for me.
The Pocket Picker is a killer pattern this time of year and even better when the sulphurs start popping. I like the Pocket Picker but I wanted to tie it a little quicker to use to guide with since I tend to go through a lot of them with clients. By switching to a pink tail I dropped the pink or orange tag on the back and cut out one step in the tying process. When you're tying dozens of them cutting out even one step adds up in my time. Also by tying in stages and doing things like using the foam to add the wing cases saves lots of time.
This pattern and the Gasolina Perdigon have been my go to patterns this spring. If you need any of them or the materials to tie them please go to our website www.holsingers... for all you needs. If you want any of the flies you see in my videos you can email me directly at holsingersflyshop@gmail.com to place a custom order.
Thanks for watching!!!
