Thank you for the kind words. There are 2 very effective methods that I use, under the bung is certainly one of them, but my favourite is a sink-tip line and a hectic retrieve. Changing between stripping, figure eight, throw in a pause, and just make it as random and chaotic as possible. This tempts the trout to have a go even when they aren't feeding. Hope that helps.
Nice one Gareth, I don't fish much with apps. But did tie three a few nights ago and fished them today. The conditions was really tuff, but late afternoon put this red app on and landed 5 fish in the hour on a floating line. Look forward to vid. Take care mate. Shaun.
Nice tie mate. I haven't tried the three legs at the head, I just use the standard two at the front and back but these look really effective and I'll tie some up for sure!
All layers. I have a video planed to explain each method and the different way you would tie them for each. I will get it done as soon as the Welsh Government let us fish again.
I made a dozen today, 3 white with red. 3 olive with orange. 3 black with red.3 red with pearl. Thanks for sharing.
So do you fish these? Under a bung static? Figure 8 retrieve? I’m new to fly fishing and brand new to tying. Best channel I’ve found for tying 👌🏻👌🏻

That hit spot is sure to be a winner!!
The hot spots not bad either.

Cracking pattern, another great video.
Not the best visually, but the information and tying is there and that's the main thing.
Yes please, make a video on how to fish the Apps! 👍🍻🎉
Thank you for your support.

Cheers Simon.
Where did u get the whip finished tool..
Thanks for the tip and video
very nice!
I would love to see how to fish them. I've only used them on an intermediate.
Thank you for tying this fly very interested can you show me also how you fish the app. Can you send me the link or video? Thank you.
It would be brill to see the apps video
Name twins. Spooky. I am thinking of getting something together.
I want to see the apps video
No you don't
Brilliant if others do, we can team up for one as I know you love fishing the apps yourself.
Is this fly fished top water?
