Proper preparation and planning prevents piss poor performance.  :wink: Smacks of 'fish Assassin'.

I got my fish on the same loch with an orange dabbler on a fast sink tip on one of the really wild days and like Robbie says the orange shows up well in the water. Billy got his fish on the last day on Peaty water with a fly with a fluo yellow/green tail, suppose if they can't see it doesn't matter what it represents!

thanks,andy, Robbie appreciate that, bit of an odd color its worked for me in the past too.

I've made an early start to a half/hog and general deer hair dry box, ill add to it over the winter months, always looking for inspiration I found this hog var on the Shetland anglers asc. website.Originally tied by Billy Reid, takes the Orkney peach dubbing and adds pearl litebrite and the addition of a G.B no12 tag. i like the look, but what do I know.. anyone using this already???

Excellent Pete, I'd fish those with total confidence, used to put a globrite tag on mine but haven't recently but not for any reason. The ones i tied this year I put a hot orange seals fur butt on, same idea

[pedropete]

totally andy, actually I think Id prefer a seals fur butt.. same idea tho...some sort of tag/butt seems de rigueur...
