Thanks for the warning Dave, this must be an extreme case.  :lol:

Great wee fly for the rivers Dave. Saved the day for me on the Lyon last year when things were quite difficult. Nicely put together. I take it the abbreviated body means that it's tied in the 'Clyde style' ?

No not really the Clyde style, just like to keep spider bodies nice and short. I'll post some dries tomorrow evening after I get home and stuff my face with some grub.

[corsican dave]

I'm away from home at the moment and I can't even remember if I've still got them but I'll have a look when I get back.
When I say rough and coarse - I think I used embroidery thread for tying silk on some of them :worried


Andy

I use molnlycke goliath thread for some of the really big stuff...  :wink:

Funny you say about flying trebles on your pike flies quite often use an intruder style tube fly. Salmon/steelhead pattern, although just with a single hook, means it's much further back in the pattern. Caught plenty pike on them but never the intended target of a big brown  :roll:

Olive and Copper Perch. Five inches long on a 2/0 Sakuma Manta extra..........
