North Country Angler is on a distinguished road
Default Small and black

It's funny how after a week spent pulling #10/12 wet flies and mini lures, I was drawn to tying small stuff when I sat down at the vice this morning. My next few sessions will be on the rivers late on and a few of these will be coming with me, should there be a need to address a midge/smut feeding fish.

Cheers Matt, I am tying at the moment, so off to do a couple, that might look a bit like those.
