Dirty Sub

Detailed instructions for a nice little carp bug that's ideal for waters where the fish prefer a smaller fly.  I like small beadhead bugs for carp but wanted something that would fish hook up while still maintaining the small profile.
Tie them in a range of weights and colours to suit where you're fishing.

Hook: Owner C5 boilie hook size 4
Thread: Veevus 10/0
Weight: tungsten bead mounted on 20lb mono
Legs: black and white barred sillileg
Tail: Chickabou
Body: Semperfli straggle string

Partridge & Yellow

  The light partridge and yellow really is a deadly North country spider. Despite its simplicity, this fly is a great taker of both trout and grayling and frankly, the partridge and yellow should be in every river angler's box.
