CAVE LIFE AND NEVER ENDING STUFF TO DO
ok so still going strong been an incredibly busy couple of months with orders going out to shops and guides and all corners of the globe and with my day job between things can get left behind
so a brief summery
some stuff heading out to a guide with my custom wiggle tails
new perchy type patterns have been doung the buisness
my big tail flies have also been causing a stir with local esox populations
4/0 and 2/0 hooks 100 of each for a monster clouser order for a private customer which has kept me busy
and of course playing with my fibre which has been selling well
so its been a hellava ride the last month or so
metal in the cave
so the result of a few days in the cave working fingers to the bone , however i did manage to get out for a few hours with a good friend to the awesome raith lake fishery over in fife take a look
a nice rainbow of a couple of pounds on a shrimp fly
which was a bout all that was happening for a few hours as there was a very sharp drop in temperature so i broke out the fast sink line and a big white streamer
which proved the right thing today as it resulted in this new personnel best rainbow trout of 8lb 2 oz so i was well chuffed and even better when its caught on one of your own flies
pascal the guide from switzerland has also be catching a few early season pike up in the lakes on wiggle tails
and finally cod yup cod to a friend ian from a kayak of the east coast of Scotland these jig flies are certainly doing the business a few of the patterns are show below and will shortly be available to purchase on the blog check the flies for sale tabs at the top as they will be added in the next week work permitting so below is an example of the jigs ive been making for folks all on 6/0 hooks and around 4 to 5 inchs long and yes they can also e used on lure rods as well as fly rods
these have been catching all sorts in saltwater and freshwater and have to count as the most versatile fly ive ever made if it eats fish these will catch it
so not much else going on except busy in the cave but have a few things in the offing so check back for
new wiggle tail colors
new hooks
