An indicator that catches fish and acts as a bobber or float at the same time supporting weighted nymphs. . Superb fly that should be in every fly fishers fly box.
Jonathan, I've used up all the ones you gave me when we fished on the Tees together. Gonna tie up a bunch more, its my favorite Dry Dropper fly and it is buoyant enough to float a fairly heavy beaded nymph or Perdigon. Good to see you back in the game. Ed
Hi Jonathan. Glad to see you making videos again. Learnt a lot a valuable info from you when I was a beginner. Bought half a dozen life jacket caddis off you at the fly tying fair and they are super bouyant. Had a 4.5lb a 4lb & a 3.2lb brown on a small spate River in mid Wales earlier this Spring, so I,m guessing I've come a long way since I started watching your video as a beginner 10 years ago. Thanks you so much for all your efforts to teach us fly fishers. Total respects to you and cheers. Jon.
I have bought some of these flies from you. They are fantastic for fishing the Duo and are virtually unsinkable. I do think a split ring tied in at the back would make them easier to use though. I'm sure there is a good reason that you don't tie them this way, probably to do with competition rules.
