Jerome S. who started this adventure 3 years ago, today achieved a new PB (personal best) muskie. Great fish Jerome, nice job. Any muskie on a fly is a great fish, but some are always a little more special.
David S. pictured below with a great example of what my life will be obsessed with over the next 5 months. Fall fish look in great shape so far, they are big and they are mean. Can’t wait to stretch out some line and get the two-hander firing once again. David is also wearing the […]
The sad part of this story is this fly was never the same. After Mr. Esox got ahold of it and turned it into true Mangled Fly. It did not swim right ever again. We had to put to rest this buck tail, rabbit strip, rubber leg, flashabou creation. Will always have found memories of […]

Bob Hinds sent in a picture of his new RO boat sporting a new Mangled Fly Media sticker. Looking good Bob, thanks for the picture.

Experimenting and liking what the vise is turning out. But the tail of the tape is on the river. How will it swim, how are the materials acting? But so far so good, the new Fish Mask from the Flymen Fishing Co. are pretty cool. Check them out here. A great product that really finishes […]
