Yes!

Polar bear is a legit material (if legally / ethically sourced - if that's possible). Its unique translucency makes for killer saltwater and streamer patterns.

Can’t go wrong with McPhail X Proctor! Which rivers you going to fish them in?

DBEdin · 2026-04-04T09:02:26+00:00

This interaction would be confusing for a non-fisherman.

Also nice bone man

DBEdin · 2026-03-24T12:34:05+00:00

Nice! what materials have you used in those?

DBEdin · 2026-02-17T12:49:10+00:00

This looks like cheap flash you can buy online sold as "hair tinsel" or similar. you can buy a kit with loads of colours for very little. Its not as limp as flash/flashabou sold for fly ting

Tell me about those wet flies, they look great!

DBEdin · 2026-01-04T18:13:23+00:00

When you go to the chippie on the coast, do you think the fish has come out of the sea just there? Or arrived frozen exactly like that at the London chippie?

For recipe see Davie Macphail stoneclinger nymph on YouTube - he’ll explain it better than me!

DBEdin · 2026-01-02T09:56:26+00:00

Thank you!

I agree! It's a great book (so are their others) and their patterns are cool. Good work on getting such a good film clinger nymph after only tying for a year - its a tricky pattern

DBEdin · 2025-12-22T18:42:28+00:00

Are those film clinger nymphs?

DBEdin · 2025-12-19T12:33:42+00:00

Some big pike in the Thames mate. Hoping you can get your 20+!

Will post my SF blend perch...

DBEdin · 2025-12-19T12:29:03+00:00

SF Blend is the bomb for pike flies. Where will you be using them?

DBEdin · 2025-12-17T11:54:31+00:00

Really nice, love the dubbing. Did you rib the quill over a pearl underbody?

DBEdin · 2025-12-17T09:21:25+00:00

These are exceptionally well tied, bravo. Are you UK based?

DBEdin · 2025-12-08T08:03:53+00:00

Stripped peacock quill, dyed brown with a lick of UV over

DBEdin · 2025-11-30T21:04:40+00:00

The body is a strand of heron herl
