What have you tied today?

[Wildfisher]

Now don't laugh ..........   ........... this fly caught me a 6 1/2lb sea run trout on The Grey River New Zealand and has caught me more modest fish on home rivers.

A small streamer that swims upside down courtesy of the dumbbell eyes and keeps the hook off the bottom.

The Suzie

Keep it small, this is on a size 10 Kamasan b170. Standard shank = fewer lost fish.

You will need:

1 x spool of red thread
1 x  size 10 standard shank hook
1 x brass dumbbell eyes
Pearly Lurex for the body
UV resin or 2 part epoxy to hold it all together


and one of these   :lol:

Finally got back to the vice

Very fine black deer hair used for the wing

And a colour experiment with a sedgehog, first with just the olive wing...



And then finished with blond coastal...



What do you all think works better? If any!?

There's been some cracking flies posted recently and that probably is the pick of the bunch for me. A wee cracker O08)
