That's a super looking fly Daz, very fishy looking. Should go well in the salt.

Cheers Guys Ian. It's that DNA stuff,I don't know if you have used it,first time for me. Just had a play with it in the bath (and the fly ;D) keeps a really nice profile in the water. I'm going to have a play a bit more with that stuff,I like it. DAZ.

Cicada, please be very careful saying to a wonker any thing about slipping things into your box, be very very cautious mate

Were you playing with a couple of inches in the bath, Daz? Something like an extra longshank Kamasan B800 #6. The proportions look just right to fool a tail nipper.

Steve... i hope you boys catch a few fish...the effort you lot have put into the patterns and the actual homework I know some have done. Makes you deserve every pull you get....If nothing else it has been cracking learning curve for a lot of anglers, I know a lot more about shrimp imitations than I did, I'm looking forward to trying some on my home waters, and i have no doubt others will have learned a lot also. Well done to all of you. ;D PS bet someone turns up with a box of dries and wacks em on a greenwells

Surely you got to catch one on that DAZ. Cracking looking fly that one Steve, very nice indeed. Daz; Sadly Steve probably won't catch on that one, as he won't have any left to use ;D TT.

Thanks for the comments lads, I am gonna tie a few up in smaller sizes on doubles and try them out on the river for the Salmon, can't see why they shouldn't work.
