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.

Product Details

TEXAS Fly Made in Texas

Chartreuse over White seems so right! Pops always takes a handful along to the Texas Gulf Coast, and they prove deadly on the Texas jetties fly scene.

STORY:

Lefty Kreh said, "If it ain't chartreuse, it ain't no use," and that is what keeps Pops tying chartreuse year-after-year! Lefty's great friend, Bob Clouser invented the fly, and it only seems fitting to use the color Lefty preached on Bob Clouser's Clouser Minnow. Comes in Stainless Steel only - a #2 or #4 hook and a choice of M or H eyes. Hint: 2=Heavy and 4=Medium. All components are salt ready.
