Lovely tying. A great style of fly to tie and fish.

Two flies that are no better than thousands of others but I like them!


Harold's Grouse and Claret

[attachimg=1]

Tag - Gold tinsel
Tail - Bright yellow floss
Body - Claret seal fur,
Body hackle - Claret cock
Rib - Broad gold tinsel (I use a wire rib to keep it all secure as the tinsel soon falls apart after a few fish)
Head hackle - Grouse

I think this is the right tying. The only time I have seen it in print was in T&S around 1990. I tied one or two then that have been in my box ever since, one of which got me my first Uist salmon on the last day of last season :)


Any, v nice, love that orange bumble pattern! Really good  looking fly!




This next one hasn't got a name yet. I've used it for years now, usually on the middle dropper where it does as well as anything on it's day.

Body - Peacock herl
Rib - gold wire
Body hackles - Red game and orange cock would together bumble style
Head hackle - "Brownish" grey partridge feathers

Any, really nice patterns, especially like the orange bumble

Otter Spotter

Andy if you ever make it out on Loch Leven that first fly would be a dead cert.

Past few posts in this topic have been hand tied works of art, really impressive. (Photography aint too shabby either  :D)

Scott.
I used to be a surrealist but now I'm just fish.

bushy palmer

Just finished these.

There for Davey P at my work (recently registered ddp712). He's been a great help at work over the last few years and is keen to do some proper fishing having only fished for stockies before now.

It's just a bit of everything really to get him started this year on both loch and river.
