Saw them at last years EWF. Some french dude had custom rods with those handles and told me about the usefulness for nymphing. Like feeling the nymph rattling on the ground. The grip was not too bad, but it might get slippery when Wetter.

Hi Thomas, great fly, again. Gonna give it a try, as I really like the type of tying without an "antron stem to wind a hackle around"! When talking emergers, is there a special way to fish them? My klinkhammers float really good, so I usually fish them "dry-fly upstream no-dreg"-...

I hesitated buying expensive breathables and went for a pair of PVCs. The idea was to replace them once they started leaking... well, 3 years later they still do an excellent job. With fleece pants they even worked for seatrout fishing in spring in denmark. Only pain in the arse is hot summer days a...
