Tying your own flies will add a very satisfying dimension to the whole fly fishing experience. Apart from being able to tie proven patterns, the sky is the limit when designing a pattern you think might be the ultimate fish destroyer. Be observant when fishing, make mental notes (or real notes) on how insects and other food forms behave and maybe take a few pictures.
The fish are rising all around you to midges. You open your flybox and search for your tiniest midge pattern. You finally manage to tie one onto the 7x tippet and cast it out.
I always knew there had to be some other use for the fur lining my car’s dashboard. I found it, thanks to Cliff Rochester of the Fishient group who came up with the Polar fibre minnow almost a decade ago.
