A Note from Brian Smith (@_tiesflies_):

I was watching a video on the tackle winch channel of them testing this massive hook, so I bought it to hang on my wall. Once I received it, I remembered that I had some bulk thick latex, so I went to town! I used to tie this fly much smaller, every single day. The first time I ever went viral, it was this same fly, but tied on a size 14. I actually ended up sending one to tooturnttony, and he’s going to catch a fish with it!” Brian Smith
