what is the name of this know and how to make it thanks

Personally I've used www.sportfish.co.uk for sourcing mine. A nice yarn and catches fish too!

Alot cheaper than £40 :lol:

You're a genius! Hey, I've used orange hay twine for bodies of Salmonfly patterns before, so I appreciate a fellow improvisor.

Nice fly

Nice fly, though I've tried this type of patterns and they can be a pain to cast. Recently I've had fantastic results with a 15-20cm black zonker tied on a tube which is half the zonker length. During the day I fish it with an intermediate line and at night with a floating line.

Unfortunately have lost fish upto 10lb in the last weeks on this fly and have had many bites without the fish 'sitting'. A 'flying' treble at the back of the fly increased hooking dramatically but isn't the best for C+C.

But the picture is very nice! :-)

I'm sorry,
But where is a hen & cock? Only four fishes.

This really helped me to prepare for a fishing trip with our scout troop and will help with the boys earning their flyfishing merit badge. Thanks for the help.

Thank You very much

Thank You very much for shareing this with me. Its the best Blue Wing i have ever seen!!! the photos are first class and enjoyed them very much. God Bless.

I agree with the com

I agree with the comment above, although your version seems to be fairly watertight (excuse the pun) the lump on the edge of the wing seems to be avoidable, there are other ways around it that do not require too much more effort, and the results reflect the work, thankyou anyway.

In most cases

Florian,

in far most cases, the fish takes the rear hook.

Kasper

Double hook

Does it really need to be a double hook?? I know from a stability point of view it is nicer but what about releasing small fish?
Food for thought

Once the seatrout starts to

Once the seatrout starts to appear on the spots I fish( :twisted: :lol: ), this one is going for a swim. The "Wool Worm". Basically a dubbingloop of wool mixed with fox hair as tail on a long-shanked hook, heavily weighted at the front end.

Just don't work yourself to death, please.

GFF Summit 2007 will happen!

[quote:2214c61b6b="Kasper Mühlbach"]you are not the only one looking for a GFF summit 2007. I am sure Martin is thinking of something...[/quote:2214c61b6b]

Kasper, Les, Kai and many others who have inquired about a GFF Summit 2007.

Sure there will be one! Sure!

But as you can see from the very slow publishing frequence on the site right now, the missing cap shop and my lack of replies to your questions I'm extremely busy. For some reason all my customers can feel the upcoming season getting closer and know that I will be off more than omce a week as soon as the spring really starts. So they have all asked me to finish their projects - right now!

So even though I did think about a spring GFF Summit sometime in May, I'm afraid I won't find the time to plan and coordinate it.

I think a safer bet will be autumn again unless my workload drops a bit and opens the possibility of a late spring or early summer gettogether.

FWIW, I use a 100% wool

FWIW, I use a 100% wool medium gray yarn and it works perfectly. Take a look at [url]http://www.flyfishohio.com/Killer_Bug.htm[/url] for step by step and a video of this fly being tied. I also have a link to a gallery of images of Frank Sawyer himself tying his Pheasant Tail.

Rag worm

A couple of days before I bought very interesting DVD (unfortunately only in Danish) and in this DVD you can see step by step tying of several top danish sea trout flies. All flies are tied by Claus Eriksen and rag worm is one fly from the selection. He uses fire line to join first and second hook and this fly works really well. I try to add my copy of his fly, sorry, I had not proper materials:-)

Guys,

Guys,

two patterns are coming up on GFF within a few days. Step-by-step guides, background and convincing photos.

rag worm

[color=black:9c717b8aa2][/color:9c717b8aa2]That pattern should work well on the east coast. We have regular worm "hatches", From Maine, on down the coast. Do "hatches" occur, from spring until fall, in Denmark? I will be making a trip, hopefully with my band, and to see my relatives inSjaelland, and I always take a rod on tour. :D Lars

Thanks Kasper. I hop

Thanks Kasper. I hope I'll be back in Denmark as soon as possible.During our last trip I prefered shrimps to epoxy miracle. It is time to give more time to epoxy miracle.

Very informative ind

Very informative indeed!
I've made my own wading boots by utilising a pair of leather army boots and glueing the soles with the carpeting used by upholsterers to do car flooring. This material lasts very well and can be glued with any good contact adhesive applied liberally.
The army boots are exceptionally hard wearing and provides good ankle support in any rocky river terrain.
The carpet soles adhere to slippery rocks like crazy!

Pike,

good to hea

Pike,

good to hear! Keep going.
