Looks nice stuff. Any issues with it spinning-up your leader?

Tastey flies Ed. Tried Daddies myself yesterday at Barnsfold, but only one had a swirl at it and I was too slow to react!

Hi Cap'n
Only had issues when the wind dropped away to leave a flat calm. With the wind behind I had no problems with it spinning.

That wee blue bottle minds me of the magnetic fly I had as a Kid (a few years ago now); they look great BTW.
