May 18th, 2005 · No Comments · Fly Tying, River Kelvin Fishing

So I had worked my ass off the last few days so that I could get fishing today and guess what happened?? Yup it started to rain……pfft typical!
Anyway, I spent a couple of hours today tying up some Klinkhammer specials, I have been finding that when a fish took my knlinkhammers they seem to take them very aggressively and they end up well into the mouth. This means that I must do a bit of jiggery pokey to try and get the fly out, and when I do get the fly out I generally find that it is so waterlogged it will not float. So I spent time today tying up half a dozen.
With a bit of luck it will be nice and fresh tomorrow!!
