Hi George,
My wife & I are planning to visit Scarborough some time in mid July. A life long fly fisherman for trout, I only recently added stripers to my short list of quarry fish. I have a two person kayak and am planning on trying the vast Scarborough River estuary for stripers. I'd welcome & appreciate any advice along any lines (time of day, best tide conditions, hot spots, patterns) as well as your company, if you're interested. I'm exclusively C&R for trout, and so far, ditto for stripers.

I like it Martin. I'm heading up to Northern Ontario in mid-July, gives me a new fly to try. Should work for the smallmouth to. It should work around here, probably in a smaller size for the bass and chain pickerel in the local lakes. I'll let you know how it works.

Hi boys.
I will present a few of my models flies that have proven over the years. I love these flies because they are simple, but very effective. They can be made ​​in different materials and in different colors. Both are made, they always work.

Phil,

It's not Linekury, but Linekurv and the web site is simply the same linekurv.dk as it's also clearly mentioned in the article that you will find by clicking on the image or following the links below it.

Been wanting to get to Yellow Creek for years, finally made my first visit in the last two days (May 20-21, 2014) The place is beautiful and serene, can't wait to return, but we saw no fish....Worked hard in the meandering valley section and down into the faster water of the canyon section...saw no signs of fish....Another fly fisherman staying in the campground said he had the same experience the last couple of days....He said that he had heard rumors of whirling disease impacting the creek. Were we just too early, water too cold, just one of those days, is the disease rumor accurate??? Be interested to hear any other comments......Thanks RD

Thanks Martin. I'm glad that you like them.

Some other patterns, tied by technique 'two flies on one hook'.

Miro,

Welcome to the forum. You and Uncle Google did a fine job on the English.
Great to see your flies, and I do see some real killers in there.

Martin

Hi Miro,

welcome and thanks for showing your really nice flies.

Cheers

Jan

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.
