New version of my Woolhead Sculpin. This one is made entirely of Woolly Sparkle Dub (well… and a hook, some thread and a pair of 3D eyes). I’m using the Ahrex Deep Streamer, which is perfect for these saltwater streamers… and kind of classy looking as well. Hope you guys like it :0) Woolhead Sculpin […]
The Woolly Worm and the Woolly Bugger are some of my favourite flies – and recently I’ve worked a bit on the concept of making a Woolly Bugger that incorporated a bit more sparkle and flash than the original. Furthermore I wanted to make it a bit more flexible – by making it easy to […]
This is a classic in British reservoir angling. The body material is sold under names like flash chenille, fritz or cactus chenille, and gives this fly a lot of sparkle and action. High visibility makes the Flash Chenille Booby a fine searching pattern. Use discrete colours for clear water situations and hot versions like chartreuse, […]
Hot coloured Booby Fly for discoloured water in rivers or lakes. Really an easy tie. I tie this fly in a variety of colours: mostly olive, black, brown, orange and white. Orange Flash Chenille Booby Hook: Wet fly hook or short streamer hook # 4 – 10 Tread: White or orange Tail: Orange marabou Body: […]
I made this meaty streamer fly for brown trout fishing, and it has been really productive during the past season. With the heavy dumbbell eyes it is definitively not made for light tackle and long tippets. But any sensible streamer setup in the 7 to 8 weigh range will do. A Skagit style line is […]
What most of us do, when we create new streamer style fly types for trout and other fish eating predators, is chasing the teardrop shaped outline of a small fish. The choice makes good sense, since it’s the ultimate aerodynamic or, in this case, hydrodynamic shape. Look at the wings of an airplane, the shape […]
My take on a classic streamer pattern. A must have fly for just about any kind of streamer fishing for trout, steelhead and salmon. I make this fly in black, olive, brown and rusty brown colors. This one is tied with Woolly Sparkle Dub in the color Black Widow. The head is a tungsten bead. […]
A rather simple but effective baitfish streamer fly that i use in fresh- and saltwater. I this video you can see it swimming underwater. On my YouTube channel you can find a tying video on this fly as well. This fly is tied with only one material (not counting hook, thread and 3D eyes) – […]
