The first fly looked a bit like a dogs dinner and I would fish it with great confidence as rough flies always catch the most fish. Thanks as always. Cheers.
Not far from the distillery, has a decent tour and of course sample. Curious if you have been on the Spey with a fly. Water level has been iffy the past few years at Aviemore. We had floods round in the campsite last year but very low levels the year before. Been a hit and miss with the fishing. On tying what range of threads are best using. Seen some thicker used for first application. Seems I'm always overdoing the threads
I fished it further up at KIllermony not far from the Aberlour distillery. For ordinary threads a 6/0 serves most purposes if you are using Nano silks then 50d.
Appreciated, not many if any Ive found explain the threads and other thread styles in a wee bit more detail. Have seen a few that show what's being used. Obviously yourself and Davie
Hi Lindsay! Nice fly! Do you ever tie this fly on a larger hook for larger fish? You might remember me. I'm a 61 year old dude from California USA. I've had two carple tunnel surgeries on each hand and due to some nerve damage my hand dexterity is not the best so large flies are easier for me. Thank you sir! It's always a pleasure to learn from you!
It's clear you prefer to use the Hanak hooks above any others.I have used them but now find they a few becoming harder to source. Perhaps you could offer other makes as an alternative.
The Ludlow Flying Club ?...mmm...Dalwhinnie 43% you say..must get some of that stuff for flying while I'm tying Lindsay😄...great video, thanks for sharing as ever
This is a great idea .Hope it continues ? Can you please provide information on you lamp please ? The one to your left side and above your head . Thank you .
The odd dram is a great way of preparing for some serious fishing. A few years ago I really put some serious preparations aka Glenmorangie before a day on the Helmsdale near Thurso. You learn by your mistakes,or not😉

I don't only like #14 is as big as I will go with this one buddy.

I use them because IMHO they are the best barbless hooks you can get. I am sure there are alternatives out there I just don’t use them.
Fair comment,I wouldn't argue with thst.

@@lindsayiflyfishnot so amigo, thanks for all the good stuff you share 👍🏿
Lindsay lovely fly, why 3 different materials in the wing?
I think it just adds to the substance to the fly.
Very informative and enjoyable
Thanks for watching 👍
Looking forward to Ludlow demo
