A pattern although I have tied it as a copy of a template given to me by a most talented casting instructor, guide and fly dresser by the name of Bert Schaaf who hails from Germany, is as of yet completely untested by me but will be going out tomorrow night and I shall report on its progress. With the mobility that is offered by the careful selection of materials I am sure that it will prove successful.
