Bob's post earlier explain's it well Steve although i have had the odd problem with this pattern in the past :oops: tending to tye it on a heavy wire hook,with slightly more deer hair to keep it sitting in the right position :oops: probably give it a throw at the weekend,even although it's a bit cauld yet :roll:
All the best

Thank's Billy,got a bottle and a few bit's and piece's from Danny's den this morning on the way home from hell :wink: Actually seen a few rise's in the Greenland's last week[if you are familiar with this loch]hardly loupin oot the water,but enough interest to give the dry's[emerger]a try
All the best
Chris.

Hi Billy

The albion gave up the Greenside a long time ago,free fishing now,the Greenland's is a totally different water Billy,it lies behind the Humphrey and best approached from Milton,although i like the 1 1/2 hour walk over the hill's too this wee loch,not much water to cover,and fish averaging about 3/4 pound and one of my favourites,may have a cast here again at the weekend.
All the best
Chris.

I found Xink to be useless for sinking the tippet, as was Loon's synthetic mud. I'm sure it's fine for DHE bodies, but so is a good soaking of loch water, applied with the fingertips!
Permasink is the best for submerging nylon, unless someone knows better.
