Hi Bassturd You are a bit wrong. What you are after according to your writing is Spey style wings. Let me explain. The first pic is Dee style wings: And this one is Spey style wings: There are more ways to tiein the Spey wings normally two strips of bronze mallard. I think most set the wings one at a time starting with the opposite one. The techniquie is explained and showed in John Sheweys book "Spey and Dee fles" Which I can highly recommend if you are into tying these kind of flies. Regards Jens

Hi Daryn Nice Cosseboom. Just ready to be fished! Jens

Hi Fabrice I can get you the temple dog hair if you really need it. But a piece of advice If you are just starting up tying tube flies begin your efforts with Artic fox it is a lot cheaper and very much like temple dog both in structure and in mobility in the water. Regards jens

Hi guys The upcoming season is just round the corner and it will again be time to hunt the seatrout on the coastline. One of my choices is fry imitations. Here are a few examples. Tight lines Jens

Hi Daryn Nice simple killer. A fly tht will work anywhere. :thumbsup: Jens

Hi Davy I missed that class....... but anyway a nice Dee fly in some interesting colours. :thumbsup: Jens

Hi Ulf Nice to hear, that Anders survived Now ha can walk around telling a "Fishy story" that is actually true! Jens

Hi Micke The body is ginger cactus chenille. The body hackle is orangebrown disco yarn. Jens

Hi Dyran and all you posting on this Forum Happy New Year. I November Daryn posted some of his buggers. We got in a dialog about the palmer hackle on these flies and Daryn was kind enough to send me some of his "Disco yarn". Here is my version for The Scandinavian peat coloured rivers. Regards Jens

Hi Palli Nice fly Is the wing made of your "Artic Runner" horse hair ? Regards Jens

Hi J.R. Nice cosseboom looks great. I have never had any luck with this fly but tied quite a few and some of them will surely get a swim when I go to Newfoundland next summer. Regards Jens

Hi guys Just a reminder, be carefull when you release your next grayling. (the vidio clip is from Swedish television) Happy New Year Jens http://svt.se/svt/road/Classic/shared/medi...68&a=564154

Hi Davy Very nice tie. This fly absolutly has something about it. Regards Jens :thumbsup:

Hi Davy An "Ugly looking Killer" very nice Regards Jens

Hi Now my first box for next season's trip to Newfoundland is ready. Jens

Carambola Nice tube Regards Jens

Hi AIG You can convert almost every pattern to a tube version. Books about the Svandinavian style of tube pattern in Englisjh language is not easy to get. But there is an English magazine which often bring tube flies pattern www.flyfishing-and-flytying.co.uk Jens

Hi Daryn Beautifull streamer with a head that will surely make some disturbance in the water A nice little fish imitation that will work over here in the spring. I can see that the wing is free do you never tie it in as a zonker? Jens

Hi Carambola Nice sheeps. They will surely work on the Dee. Are you going this spring? Regards Jens

Jens can you give instructions as to what materials you use to tie this fly. It looks amazing and I cant wait to tie a few up. One quick question on a seperate note... have you ever had issues with junction tubing not breaking away? I recently made a tip up steelhead fishing and had two solid takes on the swing. In both instances the tubing did not break away. I have never had this happen before I also lost both fish in each instance. Thanks Jens I will look forward to patterns you will be posting in the future. Hi Here is the dressing: Tube: Orange FITS tube system Tag: Dark purple oval tinsel Tail: Purple SLF hanks Rear body: Gold flatbraid Front body: Purple SLF Hackle: Purple cock Rib: Oval silver Wings: Pink and Purple Artic fox Head: Black cone To your second question I am not really sure what you mean Is it the silicone tube holding the hook or?? Jens

Hi all Got the new turbo cones this morning and I simply had to try them out. The result was an Orange Turbo Tube for spring fishing in dark water. Cant wait to see them working in the water. Jens

Hi Just got hold of some new wing material (Himalayan Sheep) Here is my first try. The Scottish pattern Black Sheep. Nice to work with but how it will work in the water time will tell. Jens

Hi Thomas I just bought the sheep because it looked good. I bought it in a shop here in Denmark. I will give it a try. If it works I will let you know. About the fishing - do you mean this year or next year? Jens

Hi Ray I can see that Thomas is not online so I can answer I am sure he will agree.... If You remember my class. I just left 1 (one) milimeter in front of the cone and then melted it down carefully without touching the plastic with the flame. Remember to have the mandrel/pin inside the tube and when the melting touches the front end of the cone push the pin forward to make sure that the hole is intact. Same procedure, here you leave 1½ to 2 milimeter in front of the cone before melting. You can also form it a little by pressing it against a piece of metal as soon as the melting touches the front end of the cone but remember to get the pin through the hole before it hardens. Hope that it makes sence Jens

Hi Micke Nice Munro Killer. This fly is really a killer. One suggestion. Try to build the under wing in two sections. The first only as long as the body and the second a 1/3 longer. It gives a better tapering to the wing and then a few strands of holografic gold angelhair between the the wings. Regards Jens
