snatchers

[bluezulu]

how and where and in what conditions does one use a snatcher?

they look tremendously good and bug like to me- if i was a trout i would- but never having tied one on let alone caught a fish with one i wouldn't know where to start

thanks allan.

so would you fish one as part of a team of flies, on its own , or both depending on conditions. presumably as a buzzer its fished dead slow or static?

All snatcher is, is a palmered fly tied on a curved hook, with jungle cock added. They work though and look cool (as much as  a flee can do)

thanks. i have some in flybox number 7 (thats  after hours of anguished selection and elimination ) for my forthcoming trip to sutherland.
