FLY FISHING - WINTER FISHING " SOFT CHEESE MINNOW"

[@DFomalley]

Hi Alec, I tied a couple of the same pattern, or similar with my fly tying capability. This pattern worked a treat on a small stillwater venue in Oxfordshire. Thanks for sharing. Dermot.

That's great to hear , it's a very productive indicator pattern , trout love them . Thanks for your feedback👍🏻🎣🐟

Thank you, you are welcome 👍🏻🎣🐟

Happy new year Alex. Need to pick your mind because you do a lot more and more varied fishing than me. Question, do you use leader rings and if you dont, why wouldnt you?

[@alecharveyfishingandflytying]

Hi Robert, I don't use leader rings on my tippet, I just use droppers when using multiple fly set ups. There is no particular reason for me not using them , it's just the way I have always done it. If it makes it easier for you to attach droppers then use then , you will still catch no problem as long as they are the small ones. Tight lines 👍🏻🎣🐟

[@robertalexander7286]

Thanks Alex. Bought a couple tapered leaders when dre dries make sense and thought I'd put a ring on the end to save cutting the leader all the time when changing flies.😮

[@alecharveyfishingandflytying]

That makes sence when your using a dry fly set up , for better turn over and presentation. ​@robertalexander7286

Well done Alec, been suffering with that "Lergy" since Xmas, can't get rid of it, yet to wet my lines in 2025.

[@alecharveyfishingandflytying]

Thanks Mike , I am still not over it yet , been I was going crazy stuck in the house.👍🏻🎣🐟

[@mikejames663]

@@alecharveyfishingandflytying Me too, trouble is at 76, If I'm not fishing, I don't tie either, so the days have been very long. Stay well butty.

[@jimmymillar9247]

[@imchrisme5514]

I tied 2 yellow and 2 white of these from your video but can I find them? No I can’t I literally think they hopped out of my box and swam away! Going to have to tied some more.

[@alecharveyfishingandflytying]

🤣🤣 Get them found , the trout are right on them this time of year.🎣🐟

[@boatman1185]
