Wild Art Wednesday on Thursday
Local Internet Outages Reek Havoc on Schedules
For a long look at what Wild Art actually is, be sure to check out the post – What is Wild Art?
Today’s wild art comes from the Brownsville Ship Channel
I was fortunate enough to have the big gun (a real camera, a real GOOD camera) along last spring when I spotted a name on a shrimp boat that reminded me of home, or specifically my whiskey sipping neighbor across the street – Joe.
Photographs, on their own, after thirty-six intense years of being obsessed with the format, do not do as much for my creative juices as do the things one can do with those too literal renditions. The Whiskey Joe is a perfect example of how to transform one of my average images into another, more appealing, less photographic style.
Texas Fly Tied in Texas
The famous Coyote Carp fly is Pops most popular original design, created by his good friend and guru JH. Yes, it is made for those picky carp tailing on hot water days, but it catches bass, panfish, catfish just as well! If it is in the neighborhood? It will eat. This is a standard for all fly boxes meant to target and catch carp in all of Texas fly fishers! Guaranteed.
It only comes in one size because it is the right size, and that is a size 8!
If you want to tie your own? Here Pops' video that shows you how to tie the Coyote Carp fly for yourself!
