Guest muddy Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Hey Fellas; Most of my time on the water is for LMB,SMB and when I am in an area forit Northern's( Way too infrequently) , I was watching some kids fish, and I think I am going spend some time fishin for gillies again this year. Whata ya want i just turned 57, probablly has something to do with it. I got the rod and reel to use and when i was a kid, there was a catalog:Netcraft ( not Janns) that had Clear Floats and white,black and green foam spiders, Where can I find these things nowdays Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted February 9, 2008 Super User Posted February 9, 2008 clear floats you can buy pretty much anywhere. the foam spiders you can buy in any fly shop. i also make them...i could make some for you if you want. Quote
Super User grimlin Posted February 9, 2008 Super User Posted February 9, 2008 Cabela's has everything you are looking for plus more...lol. Heck i think even walmart sells them.Least they do here. Nothing but fun when going ultra light tackle fishing those...talk about a load of fun. ;D Quote

Guest muddy Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Yea I am going to visit Brooklyn next week and I am going to stop in RAMSEY SPORTING GOODS, they have pretty much the whole Betts Line. Its been a long time since I targeted Gillies. I belive they used to come on a crad( The Spiders) the were named something like Stopper Baits?, The flosts were , one inch, clear Hard palstic with a screw eye in each side. ' Thanks For the Help Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted February 9, 2008 Super User Posted February 9, 2008 Try the ANTIQUE store? Quote
skillet Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 It's not quite on the subject, but your post got me to thinking about things I used when I was really young fishing with my parents. At every bait shop you could buy these porcupine quills that had been made into a float. They were great! Haven't seen one in years ... As Ever, skillet Quote
Guest avid Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 white,black and green foam spiders, Where can I find these things nowdays Check your shorts when you change them next month. Oh,,,,,,and here's my #1 BG Killa the 1" or 1.5" on a true UL outfit are much fun, and the gillies cannot resist. I use the brown and brook trout finishes (yes, I know there are no trout in Florida, but the gills don't know that) Let it sink a foot then twitch it back to you....It won't get far... a bonus is that the little bassies and crappie will pounce on em as well. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_2840_100005002_100000000_100005000_100-5-2 Quote
