The Sex Dungeon

So it seems that most of my clients are deciding to do extended day floats. Days are long and arms get tired after actively fishing streamer patterns for the day. But with the extra time on the water, clients are into many more fish, especially in the hours after 5pm.

Today’s float produced one fish before lunch. There wasn’t a cloud in the sky and a front was going through mid morning until about 12 noon. After lunch, the wind calmed and fishing picked up. Many rainbows were hooked on Hellgrammite patterns including a trophy 20” Rainbow. But the day was owned by the new and already notorious Sex Dungeon streamer pattern. No I did't name the fly. Its a fly of Kelly Galloup's. The author of "Moderon Streamers for Trophy Trout."

You see, big streamer patterns come a dime a dozen, so to speak that is. Most streamer patterns are tied to look pretty so they hook the angler with its’ looks. Few streamers produce large fish and good numbers of fish. There are some though. The Kreelex, the CK Baitfish, the Zoo Cougar, the Clawdad and others are examples of patterns that produce good numbers of trout but also large trout.

The Sex Dungeon is the type of streamer that when you fish it, you know something is going to happen. Something is going to happen soon, fast and big. It’s as simple as that. Mike fished the Sex Dungeon for about two thirds of his extended day trip today. His fiancĂ©, also fished the fly once she saw how the fly produced.

To put things bluntly, Mike landed two 20” Brown trout, numerous other rainbow trout and also 3 nice smallmouth bass. Carin, Mike’s Fiance, also landed numerous rainbow trout and also one solid 16” smallmouth using a Sex Dungeon. This fly is one to have in your fly box. You fish it hard. Long casts, hard foot long strips and 1x tippet. The strikes you get are solid and are even more exciting than using a topwater fly.

The pictures to the right are of the sex dungeon and some of the fish that were caught today using it. We do not have them on our website yet, but they are available for $5.00 a piece. Just give us a call or send an email with how many you would like and s shipping address. It is an articulated fly with two hooks, hackle, legs and a deer hair head. This fly is a true trophy magnet.
