Its an art

The freedom to experiment and create your own patterns is truly liberating. You’re no longer confined to the limitations of commercial offerings, and you can tailor your flies to the specific conditions and target species you’re facing. This not only increases your chances of success, but it also deepens your connection to the sport and the environment. The feeling one experiencing when a fish takes a fly that you have tied is so rewarding in may ways ………..and now………… it becomes and art and not a sport………..love it!

The Lab

The humble fly, often overlooked and underestimated, holds within it the potential for boundless creativity and innovation.

The laboratory is the only factory where dreams are made.” – Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam

The Collection

Wet Flies

A wet fly is a type of fly fishing lure that sinks underwater and is designed to resemble insects that live in water. Wet flies can be fished just below the surface or underwater, and are often used to target trout

Dragonflies

Dragonfly Nymph fly patterns are flies that imitate dragonfly nymphs and are used for fishing:  This pattern swims right-side up and can sink at different rates depending on how much water is absorbed by the wool under-body. It has large eyes and a coffin-shaped body.

Buzzers

A buzzer is a generic term for flies that imitate the pupae as they change from bloodworms filled with haemoglobin when they leave the bottom of the water changing color as they move through to the surface film, ranging from black to brown and a variety of different colors.

Comorant

A simple but deadly trout fly pattern popular on stillwaters. Cormorant flies do not imitate a specific invertebrate but as a suggestive pattern they look like they ‘should’ be food! They could be a buzer, fry or even a snail.

Damsels

The Damselfly nymph is a popular pattern choice for stillwater fly fishermen and for good reason too; trout absolutely crush them. The nymphs are present year round and are a common menu item for scavenging trout on a daily basis. Damselflies have an incomplete life cycle consisting of; egg, larvae (nymph) and adult.

Dry Flies

Dry fly patterns are generally tied to represent aquatic insects usually mayflies or caddis flies or terrestrial patterns.

Minnows

The Minnow simulate small bait fish that is always on the large trout’s menu.

Nymph's

Nymph fly tying patterns are designed to imitate the immature forms of aquatic insects, such as mayflies, caddisflies, and stoneflies, which are an important food source for many fish species.

Tadpoles

One of the most overlooked fly patterns in the fly fishing world has been the tadpole. This fly imitates a tadpole perfectly and is easily smashed by big trout.

Blob

The Blob imitates a cluster of daphnia or zooplankton or can be taken purely out of aggression. You can hang a Blob under a strike indicator or you can fish it on a sinking line with a slow retrieve.

The proof is in the pudding
