Karat Fly
There are plenty of big fish coming out of the larger Stillwaters. I would bet a pound to a pinch of salt they are falling to patterns not dissimilar to this!
Ke He Variation
Is there still room in modern fly boxes for the old tried and trusted patterns? Invented in the 1930s by Mr Kemp(KE) and Mr Heddle (HE), this was a fly for the lochs of the Isles of Orkney, off the no...

Suggestive Emerger
OK, Lockdown Fly Tying Day whats it all about? I have got together with several other YouTubers to bring you a day of fly tying videos.

Scruffy March Brown.
It’s easy to get frustrated with winged wet flies it’s not the simplest of fly tying tasks. The rub is though do you really think the fish care if you have married up your slips?
Jingler (LDO Variation)
I was put onto the Jingler by Steve Cullen for early season trout. It can be tied to suit your needs for Large Dark Olives or March Browns.
How to tie a Freestyle Wet Fly
I have done it myself! Don't have the right materials for a certain fly so why bother? Well, you can still create a fly for catching fish by just using what you have to hand.
Grunter
The Grunter is a bit of a beast of a dry fly. This is a great fly to use for early season Brown Trout on the river or when fishing a sedge hatch during the summer on the Stillwaters around the UK. I...
Terrestrial Ant
A simple Ant pattern, terrestrial insects live outside the water. If they fall into the water due to carelessness or are blown on at certain times of the year (Summer & Autumn), they are a most welcom...
Fancy Buzzer
I worked for some time to try and get this fly right and after several attempts and variations I have settled on this.
IPN Cat Varient
There are so many great patterns for this time of year I am going to try and concentrate in the next few weeks to share them with you.
Zonker with dumbbell resin eyes
This shows how I tie a Zonker fly it does not resemble the original pattern very closely but is tied in the Zonker style.
Grafham Suspender Shrimp
Shrimps are an important part of the trouts diet and nowhere is that truer than Grafham Water. The sport at this time of year is legendary and some huge fish can be fooled by a cleverly presented fly....
The Candy Floss Booby
This fly has been in my armoury for over 20 years it is without doubt the most effective fly in my stillwater boxes.
