Hi First Merry Christmas
I was in contact with this year about fishing around Bansko way
Found some good spot,s and caught some Trout + Chub on the Fly in Bansko in the Mountains and on the Sumia + meet some Bulgarian Fisher's and went on the Mesia, Great day !
as your sole purpose is to make fly fishing more popular in Bulgaria.
Have or are you adding more places to fish as i have Friends here in the Uk asking me about this and if there is a link to places + photos that would be great, tying up some of your sharks caddis larva, going to try these on a Grayling river ( Test ) next week, so hope they will do the trick, let me know about more rivers etc in Bulgaria etc

Pete,

Love those patterns! Always something new, always inspiring, always something to learn. Gotta get me some Bug Bond!

Keep them coming... and a Merry Christmas!

Sarunas,

The last what... I can't see any March, April, May or last anything here...

Ah, the notorious Miss Vokey! That April! I have no idea why she's last or why that matters.

Charles, Great video intro. I recognize many of the places and faces in the video, Governors, James Cistern, Current, Savannah Sound, Lord Josh and this kids at Bouge. I've been going to Eleuthera for over twenty years. I'd love to talk about other spots on the island. Mike

Gregg,

good to know that GFF inspires you and keeps you motivated and dreaming. I hope your shoulder pains will disappear soon, so you can go testing a Brown Spinner or two.

Watched 15 mins. of this before I turned it off. Don't care much for some rich geriatrics waving their fly rods and patting themselves on their backs for their "achievements" in their South-American playground, and boasting about the good life like they invented the place. Patagonia seems beautiful though.

Kasper,
Your eloquence in writing coupled with your wonderful photographs help set this site apart. Kudos for a great story and pattern. That fly would do well for a whole variety of mayfly species here in Idaho, as it is especially for the Pale Morning Dun, Ephemerella inermis, infrequens, spinner-as well as others common here. As an aside, still trying to heal from rotator cuff injuries so no fishing, (so frustratung,) but my tying has expanded greatly by perusal of this site. Am anxious to try some flies learned from your selections on our trout, whitefish, and other fish here.
Again, great read! Gregg

Hello; I have made furled leaders on jigs and they are a pain..Hand twisted leaders are the way to go,less hassle and they turn over great whth only one knot to contend with.,and less problems with the loops.5'ft and 7ft with 2ft tippet work fine.
Thank You

A nice, simple pattern I find easy to tie and quick. Now for the trout!

Nicely weighted fly, good for those deep holes, especially if tungsten is used. Nice one.

I've had a sully's for over 10 yrs. The belts are cracking - need some new ones. Help me if you can. Go to a trophy shop and ask for half inch double sided tape. I dried over 30 fly rods on about 12" of this stuff. a 60 yrd roll will last a life time.

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.
