Tied these up today for a trip to the local reservoir tomorrow. Going to fish it with these little spiders, as Roger Fogg suggests in his new book.
Lures? Just say no... stripping? Ditto...
And in his honour....
Hare's Lug and Plover
Black and Peacock
Greenwell's Spider
See if it catches on the reservoir as well as it does in the river! And this pattern is set to be my first ever winging project...

Gorgeous trio Andrew. That first one is my favorite of the lot. Nice and buggy!

Beautifully dressed team of flies. If there are cased caddis about, still attached to their rocks, I've found the Black and Peacock to be a killer pattern. I'd fish all three with confidence.

Andrew,
Very Beautiful patterns! They just have that look about them. "That look" is a hard thing to describe but I like what I see and I know what they will do on the water for you!
I wonder if folks outside this forum know what they are missing? Yours (and everyones for that matter) are not only great art, they are great killers!
Please keep posting,

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