'n brassie, met 'n sterkie van so paar hackles.

Met die gebuigde hoek, en die stertjie, maak dat die brassie op en af dans.
Die op en af fladder, terg 'n vis en lok hom baie keer om 'n agresiewe "take" te maak.
Bind so paar van hulle op.

Will do Korrie thanks, hou op visse terg en begin hulle vang.

ja-nee, ek kan sien die vaal was uit vir n tyd.
dit lyk soos a "invasion" - netjies

my volgende patroon is die squatty - dis waneer ek in G se flybox squatter en al sy vliee gebruik

Forgot to mention David, the #14 HY with GB produced the most in the past 2 weeks.No doubt because of the many mustard #14 Hydropsyche larva available to them fishies. Curry,Pumpkin,Mustard,Amber,Hot Yellow and Tan larva/pupa patterns are now producing big time in the afternoon. White and Red are not far behind

Thought so! Have you ever thought about simplifying and using a peacock thorax, flash and some uv knot sense...

One of my favourite "afternoon" flies is a brassie style fly with the wire or rib dubbed fuzzle style in uv caelibaietis dubbing. Add a dark brown antron thorax and a flash collar and you're set. I fish it downstream very close to the surface as suggested by Korrie and it's a constant struggle reminding myself not to strike!

I fished them in the past and they produced nicely.

Nothing wrong with those. I think I like a lot of work instead.

Post a pic of your fly plz.
