It’s no surprise therefor that I have a cousin to my trout bag , perhaps with a little influence from the yeti fly, in my bass fly box. Unlike the trout bag fly I seldom fish this fly as a single fly but find that if fished fished on a dropper about 1.2 meters above one of my preferred point flies it works like a dream.
At different times of the year you will start to see swallows dipping on the water feeding on midge. This is the time to start thinking about fishing either damsel buggers or olive woolly buggers because unfortunately for the midge it’s not only swallows that have them on their menu it’s also carnivorous damsel nymphs. Damsel nymphs come in a range of colours ranging from dull browns through to light and dark olives.
