Klinkhamer Special

Slate Drake Nymph

My absolute favorite slate drake nymph pattern. Like most of the flies I gravitate towards, it is yet another versatile subsurface pattern that can be fished actively or dead drifted.

This is an excellent pattern by Ed Engle and can be found in his book Tying Small Flies. Fishing a sunken spinner at the tail end of a trico spinner fall will extend the hatch.

The odds of getting hit by a lightning are very small. So are the odds of getting a disease that makes it difficult or even impossible to fish. But both things happen sometimes, and I was not hit by a lightning...

The Permit is one of the most highly sought after sportfish in the world, and with good reason: they live in far away places, camouflage perfectly in their sandy domain, and are super fussy eaters.

Since you got this far …


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.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
