Sedge Snatcher

I saw Mayflyjunkies snatcher and thought I hadn't tied one for a while so here's a sedge based one.



Anny comments greatfully received.

Lovely! Well tied and photographed as usual.

Nice. It might come in handy in smaller sizes for a hog louse too.

Very nice thanks for sharing it.

Thanks for the comments gents. I never really give much thought to the hog louse, usually resorting to something generic like a GRHE which is a bit silly really because they will be in every water that I fish, maybe I’m missing a trick, especially as it’s coming towards the back end and fly life will start to die down a bit.

Then again most of the fish I catch are full of pellets so they wouldn’t know a hog louse if it bit them!

Cheers - Steve
