DRYFLIES *
DRYFLIES for still and running waters - key patterns that imitate the insects that trout and grayling feed on. Tied on fine wire hooks that are stronger than they appear but are best suited to line line/leader combinations and soft top rods. The different styles offered are an attempt to provide flies that are relevant to the waters you fish - they are not gospel! West Country dryflies will tempt Welsh and Scottish fish as well, they are used as labels to indicate the style of fly you will receive. Tied with top quality hackles and on Fulling Mill/Tiemco hooks.
Prices are for two flies unless stated otherwise
