Re: Golden Olive Palmer
I love it! The style looks very "Irish" to me. Beautiful little loch fly.
I would love to see a variation with a claret or red wool body...

Re: Golden Olive Palmer
beautifully done. Looks like a lot of different naturals. Did you have something in mind? Water conditions?

Lighter caddis primarily. I fish this this style greased in the film or with a "cresting" presentation in moderate currents (i.e. rising and breaking the surface film). The latter technique works well with a bead in heavier water.William Anderson wrote:beautifully done. Looks like a lot of different naturals. Did you have something in mind? Water conditions?
