I have been tying some more bug type flies for the rivers that I fish. I have been experimenting with different styles some with hackles and tails, some with no hackles and no tails and some with tails and no hackles.
After fishing the River Brathay yesterday, I have decided that the best bet for the moment at least is a bug with gold head, tails and no hackle on the point, and a small black spider on the dropper.
In conclusion I will be tying up lots more of these in various drab/earthy colours, i.e. dark olives, greys and browns.
