Duo Style Klinkhamer

No comments yet

Whether you call it the duo, New Zealand style, hedged bet or klink & dink, hanging a nymph of of a dry fly is an absolutely deadly method at times. The addition of a tippet ring near the bend of the dry, makes for a nice connection and you never need to worry about the nymph slipping of the hook.

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.
