  • could you use frits for the body ?

  • Hi MrBaldy79,

    It's easier to get a nice mix of hackle and fritz with the micro but give it a go and see how it works out...

    All the best Davie

  • Mr McPhail If u do get the chance to come down let me know as it would be a pleasure for a couple of the guys and myself to fish with you. Thank you All the best Seatrouteddy

  • Hi seatrouteddy,

    I'll do that, it would be great to say hello.....ATB Davie

  • Will this fly travel upside down in the water because of the down turned eye?

  • Hi PUTAHFISH,

    No the hook bend and the dressing will keep this fly sitting the right way up....

    All the best Davie

see all

  • Hi seatrouteddy,

    I haven't planned any fishing on the Nith but I wouldn't say no as I do like the river...

    All the best Davie

  • Mr McPhail Thank you for reply. I would defiantly agree that method is more important than fly choice. Do you think you will be down to fish the Nith this year. Thank you Seatrouteddy

  • Hi seatrouteddy,

    To be honest with you I don't really have any as I have a lot of my best patterns on here but I would say by my experience it's the method used to fish them that catches the fish more than the fly at times...

    All the best Davie

  • Hi scm256,

    Cookshill or Veniards sell really good materials as this is where I have bought wings from over the years, and you are not a pest if I can help you just get in touch...

    All the best Davie
