Thank you for your kind words. It's midwinter now and I am looking foward to the warm days off spring. You are a very lucky man Flavien to live in Normandy, much longer seabass season! I tried to fish for seabass in Morbihan, Brittany some time ago but not much more than a few juveniles came to hand, but stunning surroundings there. Hope to visit the french coast again for seabass.
cheers
Marcelo,
I'm an avid canadian fly tyer with a taste for classic streamers. I've got a copy of the most beautiful book, ForgottenFlies and have always admired your work. In particular, the quality of your heads are simply amazing. Can you indicate what head cement you use to obtain such a fabulous finish?
Thank you in advance,

Ditto from me. I grew up in Upstate NY..infact smack-dab in the middle. Never got skunked. Even now, when I visit my old stomping grounds.
Hi Luke,
a quick first reply from a neighbouring country. Feb is difficult. If your unlucky everything is frozen (the Dutch are great speed skaters and that for a reason). It could even be that Northern Pike is in closed season.
TL Florian (who froze his butt pike fishing last weekend at 21 F with no fish :) )
the sparseness of this fly makes it a real winner. love it!
chartreuse and yellow popping color combinations, lovely
the green and red hot spot sure pulls in your eyes, great fly!
Very beautiful fly, the wing....WOW.
An outstanding streamer,love it!.....
Dan, nothing like the action of Fox Tail in the water.Beautiful creation!
Very impressive video. Awesome!!! Lets keep places like this intact.
A nice fly,but in my neck of the woods(U.S.),we would call it a wolly worm,either way nice simple fly,that works in both still,& moving waters,tight lines,& bent rods.
Please send me a link to purchase this item, this pattern perfectly matches the caddis larva I saw while fishing yesterday.
Thanks.

Nice looking flies! I liked it a lot but I have not had the chance to try it out as yet.
I will be in Oman around Feb 1-3, how do I find a fly fishing guide in Oman or is there any? Do u guide? I would appreciate any contact info.
This looks like a minnow compared to the one my friend Chris caught
Great job on developing the hopper & presentation! Will be tying some up for the Summer.
Keep up the good work Brian!!
Kind regard to Edwin as wel.

I saw this pattern from a friend who got it from this site. So I tied some on a size 12 hook to try on trout and it works great on brown and brook trout.
… I have a small favor to ask.
