Hi all. I did 2hrs on a stillwater last evening and must have learnt something, but I'm not sure what
.
Fishing dries I got no interest at all with my usual grey duster type thing, I tie them para style and they are normally takers.
Bloke 50yds away was in almost every cast, anyway, over a brew we were comparing flies and he was using a klink,self tied.
This fly was pretty much identical size and colour wise to mine, the only real difference was the curved buzzer type hook.
I cadged one from him and got my arm pulled off for the next hour. So,, what is it about that fly that made the difference ?
I can only think the obvious,, that the footprint is different and it sits in rather than on the surface. Never known this before on that
water
regards to all, derek
