What have you tied today?

[Bobfly]

I think that's a good flee    Sort of a cross between a Peter Ross and the Irish Cock Robin and that is good parentage !

This one is a bit more true to the original pattern although looking at pics of original dressing it should maybe be more heavily dressed. I don't suppose it will make any difference to the troot. I imagine the only time you need to stick to an original dressing is for display purposes and the like. Far too much is made of sticking to exact original dressings for success with troot.

the original fly was tied with the darkest blue pigs wool which looked black and the true colour could only be seen when held up to the light.these are the words of E J MALONE  author of Irish trout and salmon flies. any modern versions of Ballinderry black seals fur that i've seen just seem to have a little dark blue mixed in with black. whether this makes a better fly i couldn't say .

That is a cracking looking fly, very nicely tied.

There needs to be a category called      "Hybrid Flies - The Real Killers"

Love that Andy, my Tippett is all hot orange just because that's all I've got but I do prefer it. The mallard is nice blue
