For online tutorials etc etc have a look at Pike fly-fishing articles Simon is a great guy and a very proficient tyer of pike flies - easier than just listing materials here... also search for posts by Dougie (now Fulling Mill consultant) another top tyer... tie what those guys tie and you on't go far wrong... I did and have caught more pike than ever... by all means have a look at my blog... However, I'm really only an average tyer... but they catch fish

That is some site.... cheers for sharing. There is an unreal amount of info on it..

If anyone could post where they get their pike fly hooks from that would be great! Also, please indicate the make and size of the hook..
I have tried looking online for Partridge Ad Swier Pike, but they are fairly pricy..

Can anyone advise me on the following hook? Mustad C68 S SS? They are considerably cheaper at £6.75 for 25 hooks...
