Nice looking flies there M, Is that a cheeky wee spot of H/E & CDC around the collar of the nymph?

Here are a few of my own Grayling catchers of the last 4 days!

Legs on the CN are just Awsome 'Possem dubbing gone over with some Velcro.

The straight shank hook is Knapek Barbless size 14, the CN hook is a Hanak H300BL.

Yes K, Squirrel and CDC

I like the background on you pink CN, what dubbing are you using now?

I have not seen that 2nd one down before, off to copy it.

Kieron,

Is that a Mee's Moon profile plate? I have not seen any of them around for, well, 25 or so years. Mick Mee will be soo happy

Cheers,
Hans W
