I tied a few up and headed to Manningford.when I had 2 fish in 3 casts I thought I better something less successful or face goung home before lunch. I returned to it mid afternoon and had the fun of watching a browie follow it back and forth before taking it. Not a huge one but my first one at the venue. I've been fly fishing for nearly 15 years but due to c&r policy for browns where I usually fish I've never tasted one. I will now.

Love the absolutely pure GEORDIE!!!! Great pattern that I MUST TIE!!! Curious as to why - at 4.49 - when you cut the flexi-floss, you don’t just wrap the material back to the tail to form the rib, rather than tying in a whole new piece of the same material to the wrap it forward for essentially the same effect. Always trying to eliminate steps! 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
