- Craig Riendeau demonstrates tying his Sonic Boom Fly, a great fly for Crappie and other panfish species. Utilizing a 90 degree jig hook and spinner it balances perfectly as it suspends in the water column.

Excellent crappie fly/jig. Craig comes up with some great patterns. Thanks for posting all these. 👍
One of the most awesome flies I’ve ever seen! Wow! 😲
Parts n labor intensive,but a real gem! Looks very effective.
Warm water you say! Now that would be a different experience to sure. And, a very one I pleasant no doubt. Tight lines.
I did something similar, I took a 1/8 rooster tail and smashed off the weight with some pliers and wrapped olive thread around it instead and made it fly rod friendly.
Excellent
Great fly
dang i like this!

Could you please post the links to the materials used to tie this jig? Many folks have asked for this in the comments. Thank you!
Just curious but would it be easier to attach the eye if you put the hook in the vise on the shank instead of how you have it here ?
Hi craig what was the #4 jig hook you was using also could I use AFW Surflon nylon coated 1 x7 stainless steel leader wire 30 pound test instead of the titanium leader wire ,I went to cabela's in Maine and I could not find the hooks and wire and also the sili legs any info would be great thanks Mark
Nice fly
Wayne D - Craig is a very creative fly tier and has always been a favorite of mine to video. Thanks for the comment.
nice fly, Craig have you ever been to the fly show in marlbrough Mass. what size was the swivel, where did you get the titanium leader material any info would be great thanks Mark
How would you mend your line while fishing this fly?
would i be able to use this fly on my 5wt 8ft fly rod?
It my be a little heavy for a fly rod. I would just use a spinning rod.
Absolutely. It was designed as a fly fishing fly. That’s a little heavy rod for some fish but don’t let that stop you. I would use a 5 or 6 weight with this
wot in tarnation?
good lookin bug!
Janguss Johnson yes. Craig designs effective and good looking flies. He loves to fly fish!
Blakemore Roadrunner?
There is definitely a similarity other than the Roadrunner would be very difficult to cast on the fly rod and the materials will act a little different with the fly. But the way the blade hangs is very similar and I suspect they suspend in the water column much the same way.
@@FlyFishVideo how much do you charge for these as i dont tie. Thank you
Ian Cameron -I don’t tie commercially but I think Craig might. Try going to Craig’s website and contact him directly.
Complicade.
Terrific fly, but when i visit ur website, offthedeepedge.com , Norton warns me that it is a dangerous site. You need to fix that. No other details ard given.
Which is why I don't use Norton anymore. I'm not sure what the problem is but my anti-"bad site" software lets me look at it just fine. I'm not sure what the solution is for you but Craig does have a nice site.
Interesting spinning lure but is not a "fly" and would be not be allowed in fly fishing competition or on many rivers and lake in UK , Europe.
Scouter Stu - warm water fly fishing as practiced in the Southern U.S. has always been different than traditional cold water fishing. The flies that developed were based on what the fish would take. Hence you got cork popping bugs, things with spinners, etc. This is still tying flies as tying techniques are used - the materials are just different. Fishing a spider soft hackle fly for bass would be just as inappropriate and ineffective as fishing for trout in Europe with this fly.
Oy! You got a license for that fly?
