👍👍👍

Some months back I walked round Rutland water to watch the lads fish from the boats. Which was spoiled by the smell of curry which stank everywhere. Won't go back again.

Deadly pattern 🫡

KZfaq has decided i should take uo fly fishing

💪

Managed to pick up a packet of the correct dubbing at last year's, 2023, BFFI.

Great video Lindsay 🐟🎣

Great video. It's nice to see match fly fishing or "fly fishing tournaments," as they say here in the States. There needs to be more videos like this. Keep up the good work. 😁👍

I also want to try competing. Thank you for the awesome video.

👍👍👍

Lindsay the audio only working on left side

Great video

Thanks Lindsay, great video. Liked the reference to cameraderie, integral part of a good day on the water

Luck can play a part. However the more you practice. The harder you work with techniques. Reading the conditions on the water. Even a slight change in light conditions. Wind direction/speed temp can change not only the available food sources. The fish could change totally in what and where they are feeding. From the upper few feet to 6, 12, feet even deeper in a few mins. So easy to misread or not pick up the changes, by becoming fixated on what was working earlier. Be alert aware and flexable.

I found International Comp really really boring . By the time it got to the end of the week and Comp day i was totally scunnered

Lindsay that was a very good video with loads of information, I was hooking the fish with you. I am heading down to Grafham next season. first class.

Definitely more vids like this bud, really enjoyable 👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Great video.

The combination of mosaic black bibio thorax with the Muskins type breathers brings the Ptn right upto date.

Love watching your videos. Another beautifully tied fly.

I have a lot of success with this Half Hog with Hopper legs. I've never added a detached body. It's my understanding that this fly is a Shetland fly as the hogs are bouyant in a wave.

Good job Lindsay- this is an effective fly on its day - I see you use Hanak Jig Eagle - I normally use the 450bl - Are there any advantages to using the Eagle ?

Very nice muskins pattern Lindsay 🐟🎣

Super looking bug nice tying

I have a Richard Wheatley fly box and a wychwood televue The Wheatley got mites in it and they destroyed some of my flies But the televue even though it’s cheaper didn’t. Wheatley aren’t weather sealed Televue is and that was what made a big difference. Mites can’t get past the seal.

Great. Looking fantastic as always. I'll give it a try too. By the way, could you also introduce some suitable fishing techniques or setups to use with these flies? Thank you.

Beautiful job. Proven nymph 😍

Could you use the remaining stem of the cdc as rib on a dry or emerging pattern? Just protect it with an extra counter wrap of nano silk or fine fluorocarbon. The stubs could add movement or the hint of gills as seen on some caddis ect.

That ice dubbing is rarer than fresh unicorn droppings 😂😂😂

Not even a month ago I fished this fly in the Pyrenees, in Spain. Good job!

👍👍👍👍

Hi Lindsay could you pleasetell me the make of the head magnifier ISaw you usind in one of your videos Best regards Dave

Do you have a video showing how you do the legs?

Thank you so much. It was very helpful 😮

Just discovered your Chanel your easy to listen to from a young fly fisher from the east coast of Scotland 👍 many thanks for your upload

Thanks Lindsay for the video again. Can I ask a random question. How do you attach your nippers to your Lifevest? Thanks very much

Fabulous stuff Lindsay!Love the upper Wye and V well done with those trout and grayling. Cracking.. Is this here part of the lower end of the Rhayader AA waters do you know ?

How long would you recommend the droppers to be?

How do you get stuck blanks apart if you can't twist them - has that been an issue for anyone? 🤔

Hi lindsay I have been reading just lately about the youth in Scotland are coming up strong young lads . so I think it's more of a area thing than a over all thing . So the young lads from Scotland are looking good 👍

I think yersel and jock kettles should buy wan each and maybe have a wee Toblerone cup next year.

Struggling getting the fish in Lindsay, you need one of those new round rods everyone’s talking about 😂

Look at those chemtrails in the background 🙈

Limited lifetime warranty. Others if you take a section in, new rod plus postage. You put the Zander back!!!!

What a great idea the 6x4 is.

If you check out a book by the late Richard walker called "Rod Building for Amatures" you will see a similar construction in split cane.

Do you do the 9’, #5/6 but with a full wells handle? Due to arthritis in my hands I find the full wells shape much more comfortable.

Nick Dunn is an absolute diamond! Totally agree with the inevitable ageing problem in fly-fishing and the need for arm/shoulder lightness requirement. I'd really like to see a proper half-wells handle though, especially on a reservoir rod, as it surely helps with power transfer.

brilliant video Lindsay sir 👏🎣

Another braw video Lindsay, I must tie some of these for my local still water. Nohing wrang wi yir accent, us Fifers unerstawnd it. 🤣🤣
