Worm Fly
A slightly odd looking fly, the worm fly is essentially 2 red tags tied together, and in fact the original pattern was a tandem hook fly. Despite its looks, it can be a very effective pattern on dark, blowy days and often produces better quality fish. The longshank version is just as effective but is more suited for catch and release fishing.

Hedgehogs really are fantastic flies, they're easy to tie incredibly versatile and very, very effective. It's no wonder they've maintained their place in loch boxes all over Scotland and further afield. Fish them dry, pull them wet, use them as an indicator, skate them, however you fish them they're likely to put a fish or several in your net.

A simple technique for tying a spider hackle. Using a grey speckled partridge hackle, that you will find located on the neck or back of a Hungarian or English partridge skin. With the correct preparation you can adjust the density of the finished hackle by adjusting how many barbs you leave on the hackle before you tie it in. Only the minimum amount of wraps of hackle are required.

The V.G.B., short for Vince Gwyllim's Bastard is supposed to be a cross between a Viva and the classic Alexandra, the result is a slightly unconventional, but by all accounts effective attractor that's bound to work well for deep lying daphnia feeding fish on bright days.

I'm not sure of the origins of this interesting pattern but it looks very fishy as both a Dun and an emerger. The hackle and legs are made from the long guard hairs from a hares mask (not ears) and create a very scruffy buggy effect. Here I use a foam cylinder for the collar but I'm sure a strip of foam cut from a sheet will also work.

Bluegill Candy
I will be fishing out in Houston with a subscriber, and he said to bring some small sunfish flies. I of course tied up a bunch of bully bluegills, but also decided to look up some other patterns, and found this, The Bluegill Candy. Like the bully Bluegill, it is simple, uses many of the same materials, but looks like it will sink a bit quicker since it's tied with a tungsten bead.

Feather Wing Caddis
Im calling this a feather wing caddis but Im sure there is an actual name for this fly since I am not the first person to tie something like this. I just don't know the name. However I was looking for a small caddis to be able to fish the stocked trout at my local river here at the end of December, which is about the only time to go trout fishing here in Texas.

Bushwhacking and Bow and Arrow Casting
This was our first time fishing this tiny stream. Finding a path to the river corridor appeared to be impossible at first. But with some serious bushwhacking we were able to experience a fantastic little stream chucked full of willing brown trout. All dry flies, all day long! And the bow and arrow cast came in clutch as it proved to be needed over and over again which is always a fun treat.
