Love the channel Tim. Been a river Trout angler for years, but struggle with tactics for Stillwater, so this year I plan to improve catch rates. So have really enjoyed working my way through your videos. Cheers

Great to hear! I hope you find them useful

This is one of my favourite flies, caught loads of fish on this pattern 🤟 Great fly for fishing a buzzer underneath.
