UpSideDown Flies

Occasionally I feel a need for a very specific design.

This is a size #18 Olive

built to roll cast up a small stream.

It is extremely water resistant by design and always lands correctly

Thus you can roll cast it in narrow confines without having to repeatedly false cast.

This enables also a less frightening approach to the prey.

Hope you like it.

End of the season for grayling

On my last day out for grayling before season's end

I had a treat from the bounteous stream
