Strange X-mas

A small talk about the fly that broke a straight row of 19 skunked trips. Nothing ingenious, nothing really new and nothing exceptional, but obviously a producer.

Hoppy,

Mine were from the former Dutch fly tying materials dealer Kelson Collection (now closed) obtained through Salmon Fly in Copenhagen.
It may be difficult to obtain, but other materials could do it too such as light grey mink, light goat or even rabbit in a tight spot.

Great Flies, great pictures, great pages! Thank you so much for presenting such a nice www and please dont stop! Maybe there are coming up some wonderful seatrout themes? Best wishes from Germany, Mirko

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
