Used to catch some huge female spawning walleyes on the Big Manistee River in Michigan using Spring Wiggler flies on a dropper. Of course was fishing for Steelies at the time, but they hit.

bry, flies are awsome after the spawn. used on ways they will out fish jigs. then mid summer when the may fly hatch gets going,they cant be beat.after that i use big baits. its a new concept to walleye fishing that doesnt need to be over exposed,if you get my drift. if you talk to eric h
anytime soon let him know that i said hello. good luck on devils,fish fry when you get back??

Bry makes some really nice looking flies for both walleyes and trout on the big pond. He was nice enough to supply me with a few while we were bank fishing last fall, and I popped a couple very nice Browns on them.

I have a friend that tied up several to make them look similar to mayfly as they emerge. Have tried them on Erie with limited success on bouncers. Caught a few eyes but the sheep head love them!
