Tag-Tube

Wing: Silver Fox

I started out with a single red-tag to try out some new silver fox I got the other day, but I ended up with six different UNI-Floss colors. This is a very simple tube, but the red-tag can be extremely efficient when it comes to trout (and salmon). The wing was made very slim to create a long and slim profile in the water.

Monster Caddis on tube

Massive big dryfly on tube! Didn’t get the body perfect, but I need a better scissor to do my trimming. This is going to be a fun fly to test this autumn when the trout is hungry and feeding on mice, and if I get a chance to throw this in a salmon river I’ll definitely test it out.

Picture: Swans

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAWhen I’m out fishing I always bring my camera: you never know what you will see. These pictures is from a trip in the Oslo fjord in November, the family of swans was coming slowly next to land and I stopped fishing for 15 minutes while they were paddling past and just sat down to enjoy the view.
