Mic Drop
I give a step by step instruction on tying my Mic Drop, which is a mutli-articulated streamer featuring a Magic Head paddle tail for targeting species such as Brown Trout and Smallmouth Bass. The fly is ideal for wade fisherman and excels in high/dirty water conditions both with swing and active presentations. The fly is designed to be worked with a floating line set up, recommended 7 wt and up, though a 6 wt can handle it, just watch your tip!

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.
