Demo Flies
« on: 13/03/2014 at 16:27 »
I was invited to do a demo in pitlochry last night, these are some of the flies I took with me. Based on the request for a Yellow Owl, Green Peter Hog, 'Dapping' Daddy and a Stonefly nymph


Yellow Owl - Variations from the original wet fly (ok its a Hen Pheasant rather than Owl wing, but I value my liberty!) :z4


Hogs with an original Green Peter at the right.



'Dapping' Daddies with, from L-R Chenille, foam, silicon/dubbing and Deer Hair bodies, though the one with the silicon/dubbing (thanks Kev) is for casting rather than dapping (caught a few fish too as you can see from its roughening up)

Finally some Stoneflies



Yes the Montana was originally the Montana Stonefly.... effective & simple to tie :z16


An all brown version


Red Fox Squirrel nymph


Body of nymph Skin with Hemingways legs and wing cases. A 'waving' stonefly. :X2


Final one is tied using Airfix Pro Sportfisher materials..... its a really easy tie though it looks harder.

If you like them I'm Peter McCallum :z18

If not I've been Kevin Muir  :X2 :X2 :X2
