Cigar
The Cigar, Scandinavian surface pattern for sea trout. This is without doubt the most popular pattern for night fishing. When stripped through the surface it has a very attractive profile against the night sky and causes enough disturbance to wake even the sleepiest fish. Fished with short hard pulls with intermittent pauses, its when you start the retrieve again that things go bump in the dark!

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.
