hi steve, very interested in your ammonite nymph. Only discovered its 'your fly'. Never actually seen one in reality, I have made poor attempts at dressing one. It looks a beautiful creation.
Can I purchase some, I live in Ireland And mainly fish the river suir. I,m trying my hand at czech nymphing.
Regards Seamus Barry, Co. Tipperary.

Better fishing pictures: Casting

If you look in casting books, ads for fly lines or just the odd fly fishing magazine, you will often see some fascinating pictures of casting. Lines forming the most beautiful arcs in the air, clearly illustrating one of the mesmerizing things about fly fishing: the beauty of the cast.
