Black Marabou Muddler
Black deer hair flies have been used for decades here in Scandinavia for night fishing in salt water for sea run browns, here's one of my favorites, the Marabou Muddler.
October Caddis
A quick but effective pattern for one of the last large bugs of the year. An easy tie with a couple of good techniques that can be used in other patterns.
Governor Aiken
One of the beautiful bucktail's. On May 5th 2014 Vermont's Governor Peter Shumlin signed a law bill that designated Governor Aiken bucktail streamer as the official fishing fly of the state of Vermon...
Strawman
A very beautiful little pattern that is my take on the strawman cased caddis larva pattern. All you need is natural deer hair, a single grey partridge hackle and a little patience, to create this spun...
Parachute Ant
Being the most prolific terrestrial on just about every river and still water, this extremely simple but effective parachute ant will not only float high and dry, but tick all the boxes for ant fee
Red Hot Chilli Pupa
An extremely quick and effective winter pattern for searching pocket water. Try it in smaller sizes with a green or yellow body.
Bottom Crawler Jig
A little jig with a couple of nice techniques for breathing gills and a shell back. Visit my site https://thefeatherbender.com
JG Emerger Variant
One of John Goddard's lesser known but extremely effective patterns. The original JG emerger used a brown and grizzle hackle mixed for the parachute here I use only a brown dyed grizzle along with a s...
Water Bug Corixa
A little pheasant tail water boatman/Corixa that is super quick to tie and can be fished effectively both wet or dry. Tied only with pheasant tail and moose mane hair.
Hare's Ear Soft Hackle
A quick and easy Hares ear soft hackle / wet fly that will work just about anywhere. Fish it up-stream as an emerger / semi dry, let it drift down stream and as it passes you give it a pull and swing ...
Ceanis/Trico Spinner
The smallest of the up-winged may flies. Although ideally matched on a # 20-26 hook it is possible to get away with a # 18. A couple of interesting techniques here for the tails and wing.
Green Machine
One of the great Canadian surface flies for salmon and steelhead. As you are probably aware I'm a sucker for deer hair patterns and this is one of my favorites for salmon and sea run browns.
Large Mayfly Nymph
A nice pattern for most of the larger mayfly nymphs. Not only an easy but semi realistic tie but an extremely effective pattern with some good techniques that can be used for other nymphs.
Mayfly Wet
Heres an older pattern for a wet mayfly that can still hold its own today. Although not fished so much any longer this elegant style of mayfly is a pure pleasure to tie with its simple materials on a ...
CDC Emerger Mayfly
A superb little CDC generic mayfly emerger that ticks all the boxes when the hatch is on. Tied in most sizes and colour combinations this is one of my top trout flies.
Simple Caddis Larva
A very simple yet functional caddis larva that can be tied in various colours and sizes. If you would like a lighter weight larva that can be fished closer to the surface just omit the tungsten bead a...
Purple Haze
This extremely popular attractor started life as a parachute Adams with a purple body. There are many interpretations of the purple haze, this is just one of them.
AP Pontoon Emerger
One of the legacy patterns from the late Andre Puyans. An ultra simple may fly emerger that only requires basic skill and materials.
Atherton Medium Nymph
Although this nymph is approaching 70 years old, it's originator, Artist & illustrator John Atherton used European kingfisher for the original wing case.
Soft Hackle Emerger
One of my favorite Autumn patterns to fish. A soft hackle emerger that incorporates some classic materials and a couple of useful techniques.
Lady Mc Connell Midge
The Lady Mc Connell Midge is an interesting, but yet straightforward tie that applies only basic materials. An effective still water pattern that represents an newly hatched adult midge.
Copper Nymph
A cracking little nymph with lots of bling. Three great materials, copper wire, Pheasant tail and peacock herl make this a great pocket water pattern that gets down deep quick.
Bibio & Jungle Bibio
One of the most highly regarded Irish wet flies tied here for both trout and sea trout. Not only a killer pattern but a great fly for the new beginner to tie and have success with.
Generic Cripple Mayfly
One fly to match them all. A simple but extremely effective cripple mayfly pattern that with a little adjustment to size and colour will produce fish in most hatches.

What's the first letter in the word spammer?
Yes, this is a trick question and easy to answer.
We ask it because spam bots are too stupid to answer correctly, while humans are not.
