Was thinking of how I could get a wee bit more movement from my Surf Candies. Diving lips aren't new but this one has been created using a loop of nylon and some BugBond.

One for the Summer test.......?

OK Dougie I'm convinced, great bass fly there.
Iv had no experience with this bond bug the everyone is going on about
so could you answer a couple of questions?
1, where do you get it?
2, is it easy to use?

Cheers Mike.....

1) I got mine direct from the supplier a while ago but you can now get it from a few retailers, Funky flytying, GAC and Angling Centre Stirling.
2) It's a piece of cake to use mate, thats one of the biggest positives, no mess or waste at all.

Cheers,

Dougie

PS - Check out Davie McPhails fantastic videos on Youtube to see exactly how it works.....
