This is the stuff Izack Walton dreamt of  :lol:

Seriously though it's amazing how simple things can be to work.

Inspired by the 'best flee' thread I've done a bibio, never fished one much but I'm sure they're good

Bibio is one of my go to loch flies especially on the Backwater, even when there's no heather flees on the go, I like that one.

I'm gonna give it more of a chance next year and see what happens.
Sat down to tie a Kate Mclaren but this is what I ended up with! Substituted gp toppings for sunburst marabou and all my brown/red hen hackles were crap so used a white one
