I present to you an old nymph, more precisely a version of her. My friends Mihai, Ferdi and Bogdan have been using it since 2005 and I since 2009. I use it especially in Sweden on big rivers like Vindel and Torne. It is really incredibly simple and effective not only for trout but especially for ...
It's not complicated to guess, but I'm really curious how quickly the correct answer will come :) It doesn't matter the color, but exactly the source, the type of material. cheers, Lucian
I was talking to a friend who started making his own flies. He was extremely confused about where to start, what to do, and which models to copy. So, I sat with him at the table, and while talking, I gave him the model below: simple to make, without many construction elements, and effective at ...

These hybrid type flies with an undefined allure that have a cdc collar with long barbels imitate both nymphs and emergers. This is an extraordinary advantage and in addition, the CDC is very mobile, it moves even if the fly ...
In summary, TroutLine offers two dedicated UV resins for crafting perdigon flies, both of which exhibit lower viscosity compared to traditional UV resin. Why? To facilitate easier application, to prevent the entrapment of air bubbles, to enable smoother and more efficient spreading across the nymphs' bodies. Ultra Thin, which is twice as thin as the ...
Sometimes in our pursuit of the perfect fly, we tend to overcomplicate things. It's almost as if we're on a quest for the elusive "holy grail" of artificial flies. Yet, surprisingly often, we rediscover that the classic, time-tested, and seemingly mundane patterns are incredibly effective. I've had this realization multiple times over the years, and ...
I discovered this combination of colors while fishing on the rivers of Lapland. It works very well there. I don't know what the reason is, but compared to other colors, peacock green-blue proved to be incredibly effective.
