El Sculpito - kandersonSLC - 01-06-2015
[font "Times New Roman"] [/font]
[font "Calibri"]I’ve become a regular reader of Fly Fishing Food hosted by our local fly fishing celebrities, Clark “Cheech” Pierce and Curtis Fry. Over Christmas I tied some of Cheech’s “El Sculpito” streamers. [/font]

[font "Calibri"]I’m no artesian fly tier, but they were fun to create and I think will be even more fun to fish. I used some different dubbing mixes for the heads, which is why they don't all look the same. A great project during the cold weeks of January.[/font]

I'll go ahead and test them here in Europe for you, and I'll make the deal sweet, I won't even charge you to tie them for me, I'll take 12. Make 6 in brown, 3 in green and 3 in black... You're welcome
Sweet looking flies

I'll deliver them in person -- you just pay shipping and handling (first or business class preferred) [

Great pattern. I've caught my biggest brown to date on the el sculpito.

And your fly tying skills are FAR better than mine.

I should mention that a cheap way to add some UV flash to a fly is with a common yellow highlighter (I have a Sharpie Accent). I hold the fly under a UV light and then get creative adding highlights and hot spots.
Works better and cheaper than the UV spray stuff that goes for $20 a bottle.

Nice tie brotha. Now we need to set up a tying room for our down times up north. With your creations and my creations, I think we are going to be catching some fishies. Getting excited.

Here is the link to craft your own El Sculpito. Cheech's videos make it so even a newbie like me can tie. Also ordered some of the materials from them. Items ship from Orem, so arrived in a day. Like that they sell Allen materials (in this case the hook and barbell eyes).
