Re: Plain Tummel
A little lkess hook Hans (Laughing out loud). A very nice AND functional pattern too.
Re: Plain Tummel
Try to remember that although the fly looks absurdly short to you, the fish will see what they want to. If your fly is presented at the right depth in the right attitude, you will have no trouble catching a nice basket.
Citaat out the article of David Westwood about tummelstyle flies.( see http://www.aflyinholland.nl spiders articles of david westwood) David counts about 8 turns of tying thread from eye to end of body. Nice fly Hans.

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.
