Think we better leave this to the Head of the John Tyzack fan club to answer.
Sure he will be along soon enough.....

Where's Lord Lindsay when you need him.




John Tyzak comes from Lancashire . OK, John is an 'off cumden' and lives west of the Peninnes but we'll let him off for that. Now John and Dean Andrews, who is a well known TV actor,  have produced a DVD on early spring fishing and it features a JT Olive.  The simplicity of the pattern is the main feature, long tail fibres with a mole fur body and the wing made from CDC (ducks bottom feathers) should make this fly one that will be remembered.

I like that hook you have used Alex, the fly really suits the short shank.

That's why you beat me I had to go & take a photo.

Just trying different hooks to see how they work.

Also got some Jig Hooks which I have used for nymphs, not convinced on them yet.

@ Marc

Yes gink up body before you start fishing, then use "Frogs Fanny"  to rejuvenate the CDC as required.

@ Rob

Coq-de Leon fibres
