Anyone who can be bothered to knot their legs twice deserves some credit!

Some lovely shades going on Andrew - It's a cracking tie.

Nice flee. Why is it orange and peach are so highly favoured on Orkney ?

Love it . Do you knot your hopper legs or do you buy them pre knotted. I buy mine pre knotted as it saves a lot of bother.

Ho Ho, Ho Ho, Ho Ho , comedian eh.

I knew I was letting myself in for that one as soon as I posted.

Seriously though, I've been to Orkney but it was along time ago and have never fished there. Are the lochs quite peaty and coloured ?
