What have you tied today?

[Wildfisher]

Seriously, when I stopped fishing with flies like that the average size of the fish I caught increased. These flies do work in a wave and when fish are in a suicidal mood, but on the rare occasions I now  fish wet flies on lochs I find slimmer tied patterns catch better fish and dry flies of all designs catch yet  bigger ones.

Next time you're over Fred, you'll need to come poaching fishing to a couple of the burns, those flies all have" trout that spend a bit of time in the sea" written all over them.

chuck it out and drag it across the ripple one day.

The Clan Chief is a South Uist fly isn't it?  One of Kennedy's?

OK, here's one for the purists  :lol: This has caught me lots of fish early season on Scottish lochs fished as a tail fly.

I'm not entirely sure why I tied this, in my experience these type of flies catch mainly bandies, so I'll probably never use it.  However, I got the urge, so here it is.

A Clan Chief-esque Fly     :lol:

I've had a 7lb wild brownie on a Clan Chief, so it's a fly that's always in my box.
