If you are a fly fisherman, you know that you need to match the hatch when stream fishing. If there are red ants flying around, this particular fly which I have painted and named Freddie, will be your best friend. It is a Flying Red Ant. One of our CbC members, Margie, who has just returned from Cuchara, New Mexico, used this fly to catch a great number of fish. I hope to have the privilege of not only fishing with this one, but taking more lessons from my guide, Andy Kim, and using other flies that he has tied for me and my favorite fisherman, Frank!
