High rider CDC dun flies are popular in east and central part of Europe because they float extremely well even if they have a delicate body and a sparse wink.

This Sedge tied by my friend Peter Durisik is made with hot spot in wing part. It is not very common to see flies tied like this one. Usually a hot spot has the role of attracting the fish. But in this case it has the role of helping the fisherman to see ...
This is something that you should have if you have in mind to catch barbel with nymphs. This type of worm in red seems to be highly appreciated by this fish, a secret shared by a friend of mine from Czech Republic. Of course you can make it using white latex or pink latex ...

Probably they are very small mayflies or buzzers or baetis nymphs, difficult to say. Here is a general pattern that I received from a French ...
Really not a complicated nymph but effective , very effective for trout in early Spring and for Rainbow Trout all season. It seems that pink bead is a great attractant for Rainbow and I noticed lots of interest from this fish. From Slovenia to Poland, this fly is doing his job very well. It is tied ...
I consider this simple fly a good searching pattern when caddis insects are abundant in water. In olive color, this fly imitates swimming larvae, free caddis and even adults who swim to the bottom of the rivers to lays eggs. The important thing here is the silver bead because it imitates the air bubble used ...
