JOE MESSINGER SR. FLY ROD FROG F/S…PICS
Unique little deer hair ”bugger”. Can’t find a lot of info, but this “original” style frog was tied by Joe Messinger, Sr., 1920-50’s, in WVa. This IS an original, not one of many “imitations” floating around. If you’re looking at this post, you probably know a lot more about them than I do.
Hair a little sparse on one foot, but a nice clean bait. I can email a couple more pics if you want. Haven’t posted it at my ETSY shop yet- for sale here for $40 shipped (check or MO).
Thanks for the look. Best—- Joe Walkowski (WNYTC ORCA)
