Default Pike fly - The Mendip Ranger.

Mentioned in the Bristol Waters "Buzzer" as a successful Pike fly used on Chew Lake.
Does anyone have any info - particularly the correct dressing for the "Mendip Ranger".

Thanks in advance ...... Tony

Pike flies are either designed to imitate bait fish (Perch or Roach) or they are gaudy stimulator types that are designed to provoke an attack by the Pike.
