The Barto-Minnow

As promised, I managed to get another video uploaded.  This is my second favorite pike fly and has caught many pike for me over the last few years!  I hope it works for you as well.

    1. It is a nor-vise, one of the best true rotary vises you can buy. Check out the you tube videos of it's inventer Norm Norlander tying flies.

    1. They are 5mm eyes, but I have used smaller eyes before as well, not sure if the size really matters but I think they look better with the larger eyes.
