Hi Hoppy,

Hi Hoppy,

maybe you try a clear mono thread for the body and some rubber legs instead of the mono legs.
If you like give the body a very little bit of glitter in pearl, thats what my shrimps often have.

But i think your flies will work well!

God that's an ugly pattern...
But it will work.

Hi Allan.
I don't think so, the photo was taken in very low light conditions.
But there is a story about the stripes on the head, the fish pulled shootinghead,runningline and about 10 meters of backing off the reel, in one long rush, out there the fish, began to roll in the surface, and after a short while it became quiet.
Later i saw that the fish had tied itself around the gills with my leader, so that it couldn't breathe, i could now bring the nice sea trout to photo session, without further problems.

Hi vytautas,

Many thanks for the kind words.
I think that's just a typographical error. I'll get it corrected.

Great article Ripley

Great article Ripley!!! Thanks dude :)

P.S. One correction - the photo "Former KGB agent" - it is the names of Lithuanian partisans that fought against the Soviet regime and KGB

While fly fishing a

While fly fishing a tail water, I noticed the trout were hitting my strike indicator more then my fly. So I decide to fix that problem and took a dry fly hook and used orange rabbit fur for the thorax and orange cdc for the loop wing. My next discovery was don't use a lite leader, they hit so hard it was amazing. This happened in spring 1994

Hi...

Actually -

Hi...

Actually - Yes, this is a common sight in the countryside but a small part of how some live. There are worse but you have to accept that this is there way of life and it's what they are adapted too.
I hope and suppose that in time, funds will slowly reach the countryside and homes like this, so people will live without class difference.
Cities are very advanced and just like any other Euro-metropolis.

does people live there ??

my first shrimps

I have tried to tie some shrimps, perch seemed to be interested in it, as I got more than 20 today....Rodney, you know where....

Great article dude,

Great article dude, always exiting to read about fishing in exotic places particularly when it's place you do not normally associate with fishing.

Rodney...

I deffinintly know, what you mean. I had(may be have) same idea. But at summer Ive been in Costa Rica for a couple of months, where I staid with fishing guide and I fished for a lot of fish spieces which Ive never seen before!! But after three months I was like....Ohh my small graylinks, trouts.. Deam my river infront of cottage... And now I am just looking forward for next season!!!
It isnt mean that Iam not gonna visit any other country!! Ive a lot of plans(Canada included :lol: ). But for next year iam gonna fish a guide just in my country(just two short trips to Turkey and Bosnia). In Czech we ve sentence it means somethink like a "everywhere is fine but at home is famous". And thats exactly means what I feel write now...
Merry christmas and happy new year :lol:

And sorry for my english :cry: Iam trying to do my best :( ...

Hey vanuz, Merry Christmas. :

Hey vanuz, Merry Christmas. :) We just figured out our plans in the upcoming days tonight. My 27th is mostly free, girlfriend is going to the movies. If you would like to go to Ishøj or Tryggevælde River and would like some company, I can join you. If you cannot head out, that's ok too, another day is fine too since it looks like Denmark decides to remain tropical this winter. :lol: Anyways, fire me an email if you are available and interested. info@fishingwithrod.com

After getting some errands done on Saturday, I convinced Nina to go to Tryggevælde River for a quick outing. We did ok, the world's smallest pike decided to grab my fly. :lol: Nina landed a perch on the spinner. I finished the day off with a sea trout that apparently found my perch fly very appealing. In addition, I managed to lose a mysterious fish on the spinner.

Interesting looking flies Dada, would love to see more. :) Where I come from, anglers are definitely quite spoiled and unaware of how lucky we are compared to anglers in other parts of the world. In the Pacific Northwest, our fishing season is basically 365 days of the year, with up to ten different salmonid species available. Here in Denmark, although salmonid species are not as diverse and abundant, I enjoy the hunting aspect of exploring species in different fish families. My initial attitude towards predatory coarse fish such as northern pike and perch is that one only needs to drop the presentation in the water and reel in a fish. That has since changed after not being able to produce from time to time. :)

Bruce:
You can buy

Bruce:
You can buy the whole pelt which includes the soft hackle and the chick-a-bou, or you can buy them sold separately. They are sold either way, which explains why your fly shop has them in separate selling units.

Nice work with the s

Nice work with the slow shutter speed. 5.

Nice photo, but sinc

Nice photo, but since it is absolutly non-related to fishing you end up with a 2.

I believe the thread

I believe the thread turned translucent and not opaque.
"I did not use color preservative which allowed the thread to turn opaque and take on the color of the blank."

Wow, I thought mulle

Wow, I thought mullet were confined to the southeast U.S.! We fish for them in saltwater with cast nets and in freshwater with earthworms and dough baits.
It seems they can only be caught on the rod when they migrate to fresh water.I will try the fly now. Thank you for broadening my mullet horizons.

Rodney....

Be sure that Iam jealousy!!! Because in our country, in my country we havent fish like you have!! We´ve a lot of nice graylink and trouts streams, but trout season is to short or during floods is impossible to fish there so we´ve to fish for another like pike, asp, perch, zander and a lot more.... Ill send you pictures if you want....
And by the way.....iam gonna do it again :wink:
