Nice looking pattern there Stuart,

How do you find those big zonker strips.

Thanks Dai

Casting them all day can be hard going and they can snag the hook a few times (even with a mono protector) but as movement they are brilliant,and when fished slow they come into their own.
I use a 10wt Snowbee Deep Blue it handles them very well.

Cheers Stu, Never used them you see, always been put off with the weight when wet. so i have been told, do like using Toby's FUNKYFIBER strips water great and make a light fly to cast. i use 10wt Powell's i get from the states and cast big flies well.

Thanks again Dai
