flees

FLEES 

well finally i got some time of work and had a few things to catch up on , and i had planed to go fishing but actually the picture below is a bit misrepresenting as it was actually blowing a gale and probably not the best for chucking flies so i postponed my trip with duke until today and great i wake up feeling like ive been hit by a steam train(man flu) bloody fantastic so all fishing is put on hold till Monday 


my week hasn't really been completely wasted though as ive been at the vice playing with blends again and trying out the builder uv from the chaps at deercreek  and have to say im really impressed with the stuff , its actually quite thick so make a really nice head on smaller baitfish flies and for finishing of the whipping , actually makes it bombproof 


if you make a lot of smaller baitfish patterns for preds or saltwater flies for bass like sandeel patterns then id thoroughly recommend this , really think to work with and spreads easily , will do a full review later for the reviews section .

you will notice from this point on when im putting in  fly recipes that i will now include wherever possible clickable links to the products i use , now i have to say im not paid in anyway for these links and place the links simply because people have asked me too as it saves them googling and stuff , yes i do get sent some products to try from time to time and im happy to recommended and add links if it does what its supposed to .....thanks 

 all in the mix


im very much into blending custom one off patterns just now and im really enjoying the fruits
