I also have been working on a new pattern I like to call the Blumpkin… Its a killer on the lowtide… the reds just can’t help themselves… its a dirty bastard…

That Blumpkin is a pretty good looking fly. Do you know what the definition of a “Blumpkin” actually is? definitely not pg-13

Hokie- those are Medium lead eyes… i usually don’t go that heavy but with the spun DH head you need the weight to help the fly get down…

Not only does it look good it is D-E-A-D-L-Y… I ave fished ity aroudn the world and it ain’t just for redfish 
I have caught 6 species on it. it is one of th eonly flies I know of that is as if not more versatile as a clouser…

My buddy told me a Blumpkin had something to do with the outdoor portolets at Clemson football games. I don’t really recall the exact definition. I guess that’s where the orange/black hackle comes into play on that fly.
Mike, do u put a weedguard on the M4?
Grape- not normally because I don’t throw it in the grass. Not that a tailer won’t eat it, but I just throw the copper crab when I’m up there… The M4 for me is a lowtide pattern, so no weedguard is needed…
