Love the tip of supergluing the ends of the flexifloss 👍
Happy new year Rhys. I had a bad year health wise last year. I'm going out next Saturday with a mate and have a few trips planned over the next couple of months 😁. Thanks for another nice video.
Nice one Rhys, nice and clean tutorial.
Thanks lindsay
Hi Rhys great looking fly!!! It would be great if u could tie the fly then show us how u use that fly to catch fish... What line u use floater/Intermediate/sinking what lenght of leader would you use three of them or two?? Thx Grant.... just saw your video on how to fish it great info thx a million
The six legged Olive version had accounted for 90% of my fish this winter. For some reason, the olive version has been an absolute killer. More so than any other colour. I’ve fished it in different fisheries to and they all seem to go for olive over Red, Pink and amber
Those are the most common colours 👍
What insect is it supposed to imitate? To be honest, it doesn't look like anything that I recognize.
@@mr.robinson1982 none. A spider of some kind but it doesn’t resemble nothing that loves naturally in the water. It’s just the way it moves that triggers the fish
@@CBCB78 I always thought that Peter who came up with the pattern tied it up to represent clumps of blood worm in his local lake.
@@lindsayiflyfish that would make sense. Never seen a green clump of blood work though. 😂 the Olive colour seems to be lethal but once it warms up, the red apps comes in to its own.
This pattern catches me a lot of fish with any method, I’ve been snapped on this fly and a bit later caught the fish that snapped me with this same pattern 😊
Great to hear!
One of the weirdest flies I've seen. Never thought you would leave all that material at both ends!
At first sight you wouldn’t believe it’s effectiveness. But give it a try and you’ll soon see why it’s considered a great fly for Stillwater trout 🙂
Interesting if this would work in Canada’s still water? We use the blood worm but this looks interesting.
Yes it would. I sent a few of these to Phil rowley which he has used to great success on Canadian lakes
Hi Rhys, great looking fly! Do you have any tips for someone just getting into fly tying? What equipment, good patterns to start with? Would love to see a video of your setup/tools etc. thanks a lot for all your tips and tricks!
@LindsaySimpson is your man for guidance with fly tying, he's done lots of videos on beginner fly tying stuff to try and use, so check out his channel :)
@@RhysFishes Thanks Rhys. Im well on my way now. Started with the apps, and just bought materials for the patterns I’m used to. Really appreciate the videos you do and the reply. Cheers 👍👍
Rhys, As an angler from across the pond where we don't differentiate between small and large stillwaters in the same way, what makes this a "small stillwater" pattern for you? Would you only use it on small bank fisheries or would you also use it from the boat?
It’ll work equally as well on a small Stillwater as a large. Much of the differentiation comes from the limitations imposed in our regular loch style comps. Flies can’t be more than an inch and a half roughly for any of our standard loch style comps. That being so, large Stillwater anglers will always adopt this rule (and therefore not fish anything longer / bigger). And as a result, only small Stillwater anglers will usually fish these longer style patterns and by default they became a small Stillwater norm. I’ve had some great days fishing these on the likes of Rutland and Grafham, where the population of fish rarely see a pattern of this type (but see plenty of blobs, fabs, nymphs etc….).
@@RhysFishes makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.
Is this an all-round the year pattern or only in autumn ? Thanks Rhys
It will work 12 months of the year but really excels in autumn / winter / early spring before the buzzer hatches really get into rhythm
Hi Rhys Great video, Some advice on how to fish it would be helpful ?
You can find this here: ua-cam.com/video/XdjR2KGZIow/v-deo.html
What is the name of this fly and how do you fish it?
Red apps worm. Many different ways. Check out this video to see how:

Is this fly comp legal? I know the fips-mouche rules can be a bit vague when it comes to rubber legs in flies.
It’s comp legal within fips for bank internationals. Having not fished worlds, I couldn’t say definitively but I do think they are likely legal for worlds.
@@RhysFishes meh, legal or not it still looks like a killer fly. Gonna tie some up and try it here in the South African waters (especially Dullstroom) 🙂
**tosses reel & immediately gets it snagged**
What does it represent? I wonder if it will work in Australia? 🤔
The original idea was a bloodworm pattern but it’s found itself it’s own home as a great attractor pattern
@@RhysFishes I will give it a go here in Australia and let you know how it goes.
Several key points you made to make this fly pop and be so much more effective. Dabbing the super glue onto the body seals the fly far better than multiple thin layers of varnish or resin. As it seals the dressing without soaking right down to the hook. Sealing the tips of the legs with super glue or heat stops the legs from starting to fray and split over many fish and sessions. Until this beauty appeared most UK anglers saw rubber legs as just an American fad. If we need movement just use marabou, hen hackle, or CDC. Ignoring the movement and kick that “the silly legs” gave. The subtle extra trigger
Hi Rhys. Ive tried this fly but never catch a fish on it. Can you please make a tortulial on how to pull it or retrieve it in order to get more chances to get a traout please;)?
you should do a very slowly figure of 8 on intermediate
@@Survivalcharlie2562 will try next time. Thank you for a tip;)!
They are also effective stripping them fast
@@darrenbisset8707 is the speed of retrive dependent from the weather? Or should i try both methods?
@kubaKoszela it can vary... I was out last week her in Scotland and had an orange one on and was counting it down about 10 sec then about 5-6 quick pulls stop a sec then pull again ect... but again if that's not working just try other methods but it is such an effective fly in red ,orange or olive. Good luck
Hi I can’t really get the hang on fly thing would u be able to get me some of these ? ££
There are literally dozens of shops and stores that sell flys. And everything else fishing related. 🎣
What’s this fly name so I can get them off eBay
