And the green tag came out tops



It took 5 of the 6 rainbows i caught yesterday im very pleased indeed i fished it on point slow fig 8 as if it was drifting ..............result ?? savage takes had a real job getting my fly back a few times they had taken it so deep !

Do you think he wanted it




Jim only tied two if each type, yesterday was the first time ive fished them seemed to be the only fly they wanted ?? then i lost one of my green tag daddys started sweating ! didnt see a single daddy in or on the water lots of wasps,bees, other flys.

Given that daddys are so "distinctive" reckon they would work year round ??
