    i know tbh i will buy some in, but its a bit like tying flys for fishing "its just something i want to do" there the same, cheap as chips but tying your own you can tweak them to suit

    years back i did a bit of dapping on loch sheil "things were much better then " exciting method but so frustrating ! 2 of us in a boat, 1 on the dap and one fishing a team of wets covering any fish risen by the dap oh for a re do of those days !

    thanks for that ,am i right at 20 mesh wide thats about 40" wide give or take ? i appreciate it wont be right for every one but if its a usefull size it will give me something to practice on to start me off ,what weight twine do you use for yours

    do any of you guys fish the loughs with mayfly ?, years ago i remember watching a program "in fact ive got it on video somewhere" about fishing the loughs with a live mayfly, the anglers caught them at the shore edge and kept then in a small wooden purpose made box then hooked them through the thorax for the dap pictures or reminiscences would be great ,do you still get any appreciable hatches ?

    Would there be no noticeable difference at all between a 4 and an 8 baffle mod on the .22 hornet? Say weight and length was irrelevant and you needed the quietest .22 centre fire possible would it not be worth putting an 8 baffle on a hornet, changing the subject slightly but is a well moderated .22hornet any quieter than say a well moderated .222 or .223? YES definitely

    yes they are proofed for up to .22 hornet https://www.tacfiresystems.co.uk/store/rifle-accessories/rimfire-moderators/a-tec-cmm-4-rimfire/ How do they perform in the field? I've a T8 on my hornet. The main benefits for me was their size !not much more than a normal small rimmy mod so balance is no where as bad if your carrying the rifle (no having the muzzle keep dragging back down), they do ok on noise suppression but probably not in the league of the bigger mods, they do a decent to good job of hiding muzzle flash if you use nv or shoot at night ,and they are cheap ! as i say though y
