What have you tied today?

[rannoch raider]

There's a bit of an Irish style to a lot of the palmered flies shown lately. They are very easy on the eye. I hope these work a treat for your trip guys.

[corsican dave]

wow! that's a pattern & a half. i could see that being successful on any number of levels  :

[Lochan_load]

Lovely pattern, would be a nice colour to add to my box

[rannoch raider]

Beautiful Pete. You've got that style mastered. The Claret and Blue Bumbles are superb too.

[scoobyscott]

Would happily fish any of those flies. Here's a wee Czech nymph to mix it up a bit 😜[attachimg=1]

[rannoch raider]

That's a nice colour combination on that one Scott. Are you going to tackle the grayling over the winter ?

[pedropete]

Scott lovely Czech bug, I love doing this style, can be a bit "footery" you have it looking nice... thanks, lads, red tail coming right up..in the box.. yeah it's a style I haven't been familiar with so I've enjoyed getting to grips with the proportions and new materials. it's not my pattern originally, I added the s/b partridge just for effect.

Pete that fly is beautiful. Followed by a cracking nymph by Scott.

Have it a go at a muddler on a tube, hopefully save me having to buy big f-off long shank lumps of metal.
