One i tied a couple of years ago
-
Haven't fished much this year, but last weekend i was able to get out, and it bought me a new PB seatrout from my local fjord. 27" and 7lb 2oz. Taken on an old classic Danish pattern called Grå Frede, wich happens to be one of my favorites
-
Nice the name just means Partridge in Danish. Sorry to spoil your illusions
-
Yeah the fish won't be able to overlook this one
-
Thanks. Yes, two on each side

I believe it is also sometimes called a False Hackle -
Bimini that's kind of the way i'm leaning too. Cheaper feathers, a little more bulk which i like and i think it's more appealing to the eye, even though it doesn't mean anything To get the best from the top pattern, you need good quality feathers. The saddles i used is from Whiting. The bottom pattern can be tied with cheaper feathers, and they still fish very well. The olive neck is a Feathermaster which i believe i also produced by whiting, and the grizzly is an A. Jensen but i don't know who produced it. I've tied the bottom pattern with cheap chinese necks also, and it is probably the fly i have caught most fish on.

Getting ready for springtime Two kind of sandeel. Can't really decide which type i like best

Not any specific pattern. Just wanted to experiment a little. I think i will give the markers a go. Seems like the easy way. Thanks for all the suggestions guys

Thanks for all the input guys. Definitely something to work with. Mike. Maybe i have used the wrong term. English isn't my first language. I want to be able to still see through the resin after colouring. Similar to the resin in this picture http://www.orvis.com/orvis_assets/prodimg/1X1XSF10.jpg

I have looked at the nail polish and paint from Loon, but it's not as translucent as i would like. Will look further at the resins flytire posted a link to. Thanks for the help guys

Do anyone of you have any experience with applying colour pigment to your uv cure resins. I'm looking for a colouring agent, that will give me a translusent colour, resembling coloured glass. I'm using Bug Bond and Loon uv resins. Any help will be appreciated

I thought so, but wasn't sure. Reminded me of something i have seen in one of McPhail's videos

Beautiful Eide. What is the blue thing at top of the wing? It looks yellow on the back when you look at the one on the off side. That thing is just awesome. And it looks mean on the black background. Mind telling a little about the camera gear?

I would kill for a roll of 3M 420 lead tape. Unfortunately lead is pretty much banned in Denmark. I've seen Davie McPhail make the nicest tapered shrimp bodies using it
-
I have used a layer of electrical insulating tape on reel spools before, to serve the same purpose
-
Thanks

How long is the hair? Maybe spin the longer hairs in a dubbingloop, and the fine hair just as regular dubbing

RTP #10 double

Yeah, you just have to mix it with earwax to make it waterrepellent. Also a great fire starter

The Flytying.eu channel on Youtube from my countryman Daniel Holm is great. He's just so great a personality. And makes good videos and nice flies. In the springtime he also livestreamed at bit. Also i like the vids on the Ahrex Hooks channel
