I have called this a Cormorant but I have to admit I was in two minds as it kinda crossed the divide between a cormorant and a buzzer. I can see this fly being effective wether being fished slowly like a buzzer or nymph or as a lure being pulled quickly through the water then hung at the end of the retrieve.

I would love to know what you think of the pattern so please don't forget to give the video a like and let me know in the comments section below.

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.
