    The Duracell is a bug designed by Craig Mcdonald a talented angler and fly tier from Scotland. He primarily tied the fly to target Grayling and this has become a confidence fly for him. Until recently I did not have these in my box but I thought I should add the pattern. I contacted Craig because there were so many tutorials that were contradicting. I wanted to get it right! I did not have the correct materials and indeed the dubbing was difficult to source. My pal helped me out and sent me a pack down so thanks to @stevecullenflyfishingflyty7729 for the assistance.
    These flies are not difficult to tie so why not give them a go they might become your next confidence fly.

    Not even a month ago I fished this fly in the Pyrenees, in Spain. Good job!

    Could you use the remaining stem of the cdc as rib on a dry or emerging pattern? Just protect it with an extra counter wrap of nano silk or fine fluorocarbon. The stubs could add movement or the hint of gills as seen on some caddis ect.

    Great. Looking fantastic as always.
    I'll give it a try too.
    By the way, could you also introduce some suitable fishing techniques or setups to use with these flies?
    Thank you.

    Good job Lindsay- this is an effective fly on its day - I see you use Hanak Jig Eagle - I normally use the 450bl - Are there any advantages to using the Eagle ?

      Hi Wayne I like the profile for slimmer nymphs of the Eagle. I have to be honest though the bulk of my jigs are tied on the 450bls
