Squirmito - The Original Squirmy Wormy
Posted by Dave Hise on 9th Oct 2014
Its been a 3 year blog hiatus for me (I suck at writing and blogging but here we go again). Ill try to at least post something useful every once in a while.
Squirmito. Fly of the Year? It has hit a new low but I love it. Squirmito has taken off like a bottle rocket. The Europeans are even loving it now. I sent more than 500 packs in the last week to Poland, Czech Republic and the United Kingdom.
There are some who dont believe in using worms and eggs. Isn't part of selecting flies based on what the fish are eating at the time? Tubifex tubifex, also known as the sludge worm, is a prolific species of tubicifid segmented worms from the Kingdom Animalia. These worms inhabit the sediments of lakes and rivers on several continents, particularly those slower moving rivers and streams of the Mid Atlantic/Southeastern United States. So..... why not fish with patterns that represent a prolific food source? Makes sense to me. I have fished with Royal Wulffs throughout the years and they dont really represent anything. Maybe an ant due to the segmented appearance of the body?
