Hi Wayne,
You are lucky to be fishing in Scotland……..land of my mothers birth.
Are you fishing stillwaters or rivers? There is a big difference in flies used.
Come back to me

Dave,
Just found your website via a you-tube viewing. You my friend are very watchable and speak very well. Thank you for your time and effort. Also, to your family crew for putting together a great viewing production.

Hi Dave, I tied a woolly bugger after watching your video in olive with black marabou and hackle. I wanted to fish it deep so I thought I would include a weighted black head. The fly produced tremendous results when fished very slowly right along the very bottom. Interestingly in about eight feet of crystal clear water it was great fun to watch the surface and mid water fish put their tails up as they swam down to see what was crawling along the bottom. You always knew when you were about to get a take! Thanks for the great videos dave.

Hi Dave, I have just found your website, very interesting.I live in Lodi, in the San jouqin county California. I have been tying flies for the last twenty years,and yesterday I fished the local river Mokolumne for two hours with a 90% hook-up using a Renegade tied on a size ten hook, I lost count of the fish I caught and released, perhaps you could include the tying procedure for the Renegade so others can try it. By the way, I too am an oldy of 87.

Hi Irish angler
Thanks for helping to spread the word. Your friend probably does not realise just how addictive flytying can be. Once he ties his own he will find them to be more durable and his catch rate will improve. Mayfly nymph….we do have it ‘in the can’ . We had intended doing a DVD and it is on that copy. If Jon is too busy to do a DVD I will try and persuade him to put it on google and I will do a better voice over. Send him a begging letter!
Happy fishing
