Shooting Star turbo disc.


Here is a fly of my design, based on the octopus form of turbo tubes.

This fly incorporates the softest possible materials tied on a lightwieght scandinavian tube system.
The whole fly is set of by the turbo disc at the front which creates turbulence around the fly, this brings even the softest materials to life, causing them to pulse and swim in fast or slow water.
Turbo discs also ensure that your fly always swims the right way around, from the second it hits the water, no matter how average your casting may be.

Bronze Mallard spey


This is another of my spey flies.
The Bronze mallard spey. It is a simple yet very effectice fly, that has a lot of movement in the water. This fly uses schlappen rather than spey hackles for a heavier dressed look for bigger water.
My Spey flies are tied on Top Quality partridge bartleet dublin point single hooks.
