BIG WETFLIES
These flies are tied on heavy wire size 8 hooks a little longer in the shank than a standard wetfly hook. They are useful on loch, river and in the estuary. Use as a single fly they can be cast at sea trout feeding in brackish water, on a windy day on a big loch fish on the point with wetfly/spiders on droppers, fish a single fly on an intermediate line to search slack water on a sea trout stream. No doubt there are other uses! A mix of traditional and modern patterns are included.

BLACK PENNELL #8
Tied with a tail that doesn't project too far past the bend of the hook, I am not over sure that coming short is because tails are too long but it suits the style of this fly well. Age old black & silver combination essential on any wild trout and salmon water.

FLAMETHROWER MUDDLER #8
Tied with a smaller head than some muddlers so the fly sits lower in the water than some tyings. It still creates a fair wake on retrieve that will bring salmon, sea or brown trout up. Fish the 'Hebridean Cast' this fly on the bob and a smaller Black Spider on the point, ideal for loch or river.

THE NEW ELVER FLY #8
THE NEW ELVER FLY #8
Try this on sand eel/elver feeding sea trout in saltwater lochs, tidal pools and anywhere else where you find feeding sea trout.
Works fished on the drop which is very handy if you are fishing in a kelp bed and retrieving is difficult or stripped. These are smaller than the other saltwater sea trout flies listed, some days the fish want large flies others smaller.
