Tying one of the Top Grayling Nymphs with Davie McPhail

[@Fishfinder-sl4pm]

grayling are my favourite species to fish for,and to watch a master tyer take time to show us these humble patterns intended to catch grayling is humbling in itself,and much appreciated. Seasons greetings davie,from a damp and miserable shire🍻

Merry Christmas Comes a Horseman and all the very best for 2023.. Davie..

[@ome69]

A fishy looking wee bugger, I'm about to try 'euro nymphing' this year in Northern Ireland and think this will work well just a shame we don't have grayling. There are a few hooks Fulling Mill do barbless that I wish had a barbed option for beginners to have a bit more confidence but perhaps it doesn't matter so much with the angle of the eye on this. Great fly and tying as always, thank you Davie.

[@dougieloughridge]

Lovely wee bug Davie. Hope you are well 👍

Really nice pattern thanks for sharing

[@bobbell5265]

Excellent instruction 👌

[@MussellwhitesFlies]

Cracking little nymph. 👌

[@richyf194]

Cracking wee fly. Thanks Davie. Quick question if you don't mind? If you could only buy one Coque De Lion cape, what colour would you buy? 👍

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi @richyf194, I would be happy with a Saddle in Medium Pardo as I could dye it if I wanted to as well as use it as it is..I'm glad you liked the fly.. All the very best Davie

[@Rustyboyyy1]

That's got 50cm written all over it. Nice one.

[@Yorkie263]

Nice, what was the name of the UV resin Davie ?, could not quite make it out. Have a great Christmas and new year.

[@jn7457]

Bug bond

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi Yorkie263, I used Bug-Bond so I have attached a link to it for you to see and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family.. www.fishingmegastore.com/fly-tying-uv-resin-and-torches/bug-bond-lite-20ml-resin~10016.html All the very best Davie

[@ross1458]

Hey, speaking of Christmas how do we get hold of your son’s music?

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi Michael, He's working on an album of his own at the moment, he may have the music I use on it so I will link it in the community page when he does and thanks for asking..Merry Christmas.. All the very best Davie

[@johnmcguigan6717]

hi davie howzitgaun? i hope you don't mind me asking, but can you recommend good uv resin?

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi John, I'm fine thank you and I hope all is well with you too and I don't mind you asking what resin I prefer..I use Bug-Bond UV Resin as I have used it since it came out, they do a light and a regular version which will do all your flies..There's many other resins out there and I would also look around and listen to other tyers before you make your choice.. Merry Christmas.. All the very best Davie

[@majinlotv]

what do you think about using light dun cdl for the tail?

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi Harry, Light dun would be ideal for many flies so if I had some I would certainly be using them in my flies... All the very best Davie..

[@ibelieve1468]

Hi Davie, are you close to tying the fly I sent you photos of? Many thanks and a Merry Christmas.

[@DavieMcPhail]

Merry Christmas. I'm sure I will have your fly on the list though could you let me have the name of it again as I do have a lot to go through.. All the very best Davie...
