Materials Updates
Since 99% of the flies sold on here are my patterns or variants, sometimes I have to change them up due to different circumstances. The KO Shiner has been a pattern of mine for a few years now. I still have the original KO Shiner Dozen that I tied up, and I still fish with them. I had recently did a saltwater test on them, as well as fished them in freshwater a ton this year. I noticed that the green coloring I used after a few years started to fade. The one thing I will stand on is quality of product, and this was unacceptable. I did a lot of searching for different materials to fit my needs. I have finally found one and the KO has been updated. It’s not the original color, but it’s close enough to still be incredibly effective. This just goes to show, that no matter how solid a pattern is, improvements can always be made! I didn’t even have to share any of this, but I want anyone to be aware that if you have these for long enough, you may see this problem.
