Thumbs up Fish a Flashtail......
If there is one style of fly other than my Sparkler that I would turn to when targeting Pike it's this one. Since first seeing this pattern on Barry Reynolds Waterwolf DVD, the Flashtail Whistler has been a deadly fly all year round for my fishing mates and I in all water conditions....

If you have not tried this fly yet then you are missing out! Give them a go this Spring.....
