What have you tied today?

[Wildfisher]

Ps no one will think less of you if you want to go back to pulling 3 wets

I know, but it's just so boring.  :lol:

You're right Andy, I should have said it lacks precision. 

[Wildfisher]

Thinking about early season on the rivers now. A North Country Spider, simple soft hackle flies that will take fish when others fail. Malcolm used this style of fly to great effect on The Clyde.

That wet fly has caught me more fish than any other.

Paul, these sparse flies often work when dries, emergeer etc fail. They are more difficult to fish than dries and the takes can be hard to see.

These all look great Fred, and nice restrained tying

[Wildfisher]

With a few exceptions less is more for river flies Andy.

I struggle with the restraint bit Fred, my flies are a bit more bett lynch!

I don't know who Kate Mclaren was but she's caught a few trout in her time [attachimg=1]
