I started with the tying.
all the flies are between 15cm and 25cm long.
According to the locals, that is the size I need to fish with.
Now to start tying a couple of each.
The one fly fisher said that you can loose between 10 and 20 flies per day, every day.

I could use most of those on LM in the Vaal, in fact some look very similar to what I use and 100 - 150mm is about the size.

A couple of those, especially the black ones, top right, I thought will be great LM flies.
Some I have done with extra long Marabou in dubbing loop/brush fly style.
With a bit of weight in the eyes, they have super action in the water.
