Emerger

Hook:

App. #12

This very small and delicate emerger most likely stems from a visit with Welsh Paul Slaney back in 2004. It's been laying around together with a bunch of other flies, including a handful of different Diawl Bach's tied by Paul.

Welsh, mate!

A week of fishing in Wales and southern England: reservoir, lake, stream - chalkstream! GFF partner Martin Joergensen has been visiting Welsh Paul Slaney for a week of fun and fishing and meeting other Welsh friends.

Read his story and see his pictures and video here.

Little Devil

An article on the Welsh classic The Diawl Bach and on the intriguing and intimidating concept of fishing a team of three flies on a very long leader. GFF partner Martin Joergensen has been to Wales and this is the first article from that trip.
