Suggested Patterns to get you started

Here are some recommended flies to help you get started, just in case you need a few ideas!

Black Midge Klinkhammer

The Black Midge Klinkhammer is one of the very successful and popular Klinkhammer series of flies that represent many emerging insect forms. The body penetrating the surface film is an exceptional trigger point as it gets seen by trout long before they see the surface footprint. This fly is ideal whenever midges or gnats are on the water.

Gold Ribbed Hare's Ear

The Gold Ribbed Hare's Ear is arguably the most effective fly of all time. It is not an imitation of any particular insect but instead a general representation pattern that is hugely successful in taking fish. Whether tumbling down a feeding channel or gently retrieved in a still water this is a real killer. The scruffy, shaggy appearance of the Hare's Ear certainly appeals to both fly fishers and fish alike, so much so that if ever limited to one fly for the rest of their lives many anglers would choose the GRHE. It is an excellent grayling pattern that is without doubt a must have pattern in any fly box.

Green Snail

Snails can make a great fly fishing pattern, either in the mid-summer heat or at the heart of winter, as they are a staple food source for fish; ever noticed any snails in the stomach of a fish that you have caught? Why only fish flies and ignore a fish's staple diet? In the summer months, if you notice snails floating on the surface use a floating line and a long leader and watch the line for the take, usually a gentle draw. During the colder months when fish are retreating in the depths of the water, snails are also clinging onto the water's bed. If nothing is working, try attaching a snail to a weighted sinking line to force the foam snail to sink down to the depths where the fish are also sitting. Snails can varying from lentil up to large pea in size.

Holy Grail Hare's Ear

The Holy Grail Hare's Ear is one of the highly succussful Holy Grail series of flies. It is one of the most versatile nymphs for trout ever tied, an absolute killer in any water. It is a devastatingly effective fly that brings fish to the net in a wide variety of waters and conditions. A 'buggy' nymph that seems to imitates almost any natural nymph that trout find tasty. Let it tumble in runs and riffles or a deep water feeding channel in an English chalk stream or an Alaskan creek. Stripping it in still waters brings remarkable results.
