Nice fly that dude. I like ‘em scruffy! I think the fish do too. Thanks for another one dude. Keep safe.

Cheers Andrew, theres just something I love about tying traditional wet flies. And thanks for subscribing too
@@michaelcurrieflyfishing6870 no bother and keep them coming! :)
Great fly pal. Keep up the good work
Thanks mate, hope to get another one done over the next few days
@@michaelcurrieflyfishing6870 My new vice came last night so I'm going to try sort something out too. Hopefully get a few patterns up while we are stuck inside.
@@UkFlyFisher what vice did you get? I've been thinking about getting a new one, I'm currently using a C&F design vice that I've had for years. Not a thing wrong with it but just fancy something a little fresher
@@michaelcurrieflyfishing6870 The Stonfo Transformer. Had the anvil atlas but hammered it to death unfortunately. Both are lovely vices.
@@UkFlyFisher cool, the C&F vice I have is an absolute work horse, 1000's for flies through it but wouldnt mind something new to look at
thanks for sharing it its a beuty
Thanks
