This fly incorporates
similarities with the well known Appetiser in colouration.
Several years ago on one of our famous coach trips to Hanningfield with
the lads of the LFFA, I and young John Miller (as he was then) were
struggling for a take, let alone a fish. I had tied these flies
the evening before, and as a trial I decided to fish one on a
intermediate line. It was a very bright and windy day on
Hanningfield but this fly was nothing short of brilliant. We
slaughtered fish, and it has saved many a day since.
I use it in preference to Waggies.
Tie one and try it!
