Great looking streamer. The colors blend so well.
Martin, I saw a lot of these fish in brackish water around Vastervik in Sweden. Can be found in Denmark too? Thanks
Hmmm! Fish in that size are vulnerable and an integral part of an isolated environment. There's no fight and they are too small to eat, so fly fishing on them seems pretty thoughtless. Leave the fish alone, use these woods for hiking and go fish some bass instead.
Don, that Footer's Special was a great looking fly. You did a fantastic job on it!
The Grannom hatches on parts of the Avon last April really had to be seen to be believed. Trout were gorging themselves, picking the flies off weed and obstructions even in the fastest water, as well as off the top. They were interested in little else except the occasional olive and hawthorn.

Great little fly that Martin, catches lots of fry feeding fish for me.
You know I've been following along all year, so I thought I'd pass this along. If I mentioned it previously please disregard this as we Geezers tend to forget things.
Dave Bargeron from Blood Sweat & Tears has a book coming out called Jazz Flies. Here's the link to his site.

… I have a small favor to ask.
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
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.
