Big Red

Vrppled midges are excellent dry buzzer patterns, and the big red is no exception. It's a fairly straightforward tie and does a great job of sticking right in the surface film.

This tasty little chironomid is excellent for trout and grayling and can be tied in essentially any colour to match the midges where you fish.

Black Funnel

This fly is kind of a coincidence. An idea. A fad. But it works. It is a funnel dun, Deveaux, Joergensen kind of pattern, which will imitate a hatching mosquito - albeit a very large one in the original version. It consists of two materials and is very easy to tie.

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
