Frog Gurgler



I am anticipating more warm-water and salt-water fly fishing this year.  It seems that my trout traveling funds will be limited more than I would like.  On the bright side, I enjoy tying big ugly bass flies.  This one was introduced to me last spring while fishing with Charles.  The gurgler I tied last year was pretty simple and a little uglier.  At least this one will sort of resemble something natural.  This should be deadly when thrown off cattail infested banks around my local bass ponds. 

Hook: Gamakatsu SP11-3L3H  size 6 
Body:Chartreuse crystal chenille. Rubber legs.  2mm green foam tied and folded over the top.  I may double it over next time for higher floating.  I added spots with a sharpie on top of the foam.  The bass probably wont see it, but I can.
Tail:  Chartreuse marabou and black crystal flash.
