Title: Aberdeen Angus (variant)
Post by: Robert MacDonald-Lewis on 29/07/2021 at 13:15

This is a slight variant of the Aberdeen Angus, with different tail and rib.  I have heard it is good in peat stained waters.

Cheers guys. A friend really rates this fly. I got the patter from Stan Headley’s book Flies of Scotland.
