Parabuteos lad 878 Posted May 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Yeah they're about 2.5" long and they sell them in fly fisheries, I cut them down a bit too so the tail ends on line with bend of hook Quote Link to post

I believe it is a very good sea trout fly and what it was designed for mate, unfortunately I don't know anywhere to fish for them to try it out 1 Quote Link to post

Well as it goes were taking a local keeper who is a keen fly fisherman out on sunday with us and he'll be using the fly rod so if that is a "real fly" i'll let him know about it,need the water in the estuary to warm up a bit before the bigger bass move in but will keep yo informed on how we do .. 1 Quote Link to post
