There's a Loch Leven fly that looks very similar to your third one down except the wing is dark brown tinsel - I think it may be one of Stan's.

[Wildfisher]

that fly looks deadly CC. You can't beat simple patterns!

[Tweed]

Reminds me of the skinny olive dabbler (Orkney variant I beleive - for when they're a bit more fickle), only without the tail - brilliant fly.

[Clansman]

Just been trying out some patterns for the Sea Trout next season.

Nice, The one with the piocture named orangeman is very like the seatrout and salmon flies we use on the Lomond system.

There is a very famous Lomond fly called the Orangeman. It's detailed in Bill MacEwans great book "Angling on Lomond"
