    Flasher and Fly on finger lakes

    in Finger Lakes Discussion

    Posted · Edited by 58Johnson
    added info

    Here is a picture of the most common set up for a spin doctor (and flashers).

     

    That shows a traditional/common trolling fly and a spin doctor.

     

    Spin doctors and flashers roll in a circular motion.

     

    There is an item called a dodger that is similar but only moves side to side. 

     

    (I run my tandem flies (the ones like Pete's) bare with no attractor (no flasher,dodger or spin doctor) near the surface spring and fall)

    And to return to your original question - yes we use flasher fly combos regularly on the Finger Lakes. They seem most successful mid to late season for me.

    Spoon ID ??

    I agree with the home made comment. Especially cause the topside tapes mirror each other. Only catch is that I have two and that is a sign that it was bought by me as a packaged spoon - I always buy my spoons in pairs when I can. It is a great darker spoon now that gobies are in my lake. Still, I am starting to think this is a custom of some kind.
