Default My pike flies
These are my pike flies which I tied.

I used the last fly at Doe Park Reservoir some weeks ago and caught a pike, but lost it as well as the fly.

Nice lures mate, if you stripe them with a black waterproof marker they will make lovely perch patterns too.
Good fishing,
Andy.

According to the first post, they do. Nice flies and bad luck the pike got away ArcticFoxFly.

I've started using Orvis Super Hair for pike flies. It seems to have a perch-like striping pattern of it's own. You can see this quite clearly on the top one of these two I tied recently:
