The Ice Shad

This fly was created for the Great Lakes, but is at home in the saltwater, a bass lake, a smallmouth river, swung for steel or in a trout stream.  We tie Ice Wing in like EP for an EP style baitfish.  A little tricky to get the hang of at first, this fly is worth the mess it makes.  Tie one on today!
