Hi All,
I have found this a great fly for beginning of the season and recommend you tie some up and give it a go! Find it most useful fished on the tail.

Lochstyle, do you tie this on standard wet fly hooks( eg Kamasan B175) Or, on a continuous bend hook (Kamasan B110) ?
The holographic cheeks make me think is would be good tied "snatcher" style.

Hi Scotfly,
They are tied on Kamasan b-175 hooks, you could try it on b-110 and tie it snatcher style, no harm in trying!  :)
