That muddler is stunning Andy, what type of deer hair and hook is that?
Just about to start tying some sedge hoggy things, was thinking of adding your boar knotted legs to them.
Then maybe some pike flies cos the weather forecast is great for tomorrow so thought i would launch my boat and try out my new pike fly outfit, first outing of the year 

[Lochan_load]

Glad you like it mate cos I tied it for you! Know you like a big fly
The hook is a carp hook but it's about the same as a standard 8 nymph hook, just a bit heavier gauge, good luck tomorrow, my first outing is march 2nd for some pike, can't wait!!

That is without doubt one of the nicest muddlers I've ever seen. An absolute belter. If I could knock them out like that I'd have that on the bob in various sizes for most of the year I reckon.

Thinking forward now to early May on the river. This is the American "Greenwell's Glory"  and is a fly that works well everywhere. A design classic.

Nice Fred, I need to spend a bit of time on dries, never really got that type of hackle right, this is one based on your foam caddis from the other day, no foam so doubled over a coastal deerhair wing
