Hi fisher,

Thanks for the great post and picture. Do you catch toman with ‘ant’ flies as well? Interesting… I have not tie my own flies before. Lack of time and equipment (no vice, and other fly tying equipment . Usually I will buy the flie. I guess, one of these days I will tie them myself. :slight_smile:

[:D][:D][:D] Nolah.. toman dun even look at it.. [:D][:D]

Ant fly is a dry fly… eerr… talapia takes it… Lampan maybe..
Sebbies would…

Tying flies is indeed interesting… but when the fish takes the fly u tied… that is the BEST part!!! Satisfying!!! [^]

I believe you must have seen Pak Amin tie this black ant fly at Tacklebox right? Becoz it look EXACTLY like the one he ties.

If yes, do give credit to the original tyer.

Totally agree with you. Feel like tying some to try it out. I got to try using ant for tilapia. Thanks! :slight_smile:
