Krogh Sock

No comments yet

In Danish: Krogh Sokken. For coastal flyfishing for sea run brown trout along the scandinavian coasts, shrimp-patterns are a must have in the box. The Danish flyfisher and flytyer Christian Krogh will in this video demonstrate the tying of his new all-time-favorite based on an old danish classic within shrimppatterns. Christian explains about the fly: "The Omø Børste fly was invented in the early 90s by Kenn Bonde Larsen and is a danish classic sea trout pattern by now. I have made this variant of this awesome pattern, because I bought some sunburst colored Pheasant Rump Neck feathers from Martin Votborg. That got me to the vice immediatly and I mixed up the feathers with a nice dubbing. A very simple pattern to tie, and was excited to try it out in the local fjord. The fly outperformed any other flies I tried for several trips, and has earned a permanent spot in my fly box."

A money box
The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

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.
