Our Most Successful Low Water Summer Flies

Supplied with the Complete Summer Bundle are the most popular patterns from our "Don't Get Skunked" Selection:

16ft French Style Tapered Leader

This French Leader is made up of an extremely long tapered leader made from monofilament. The taper is made up of a steep but gradual taper, designed to be fished on long and soft fly rods. 

The advantage of using a French leader is that you can present your small flies with absolutely zero drag - at both close and long range. The Camou French Leader is made of captive monofilament fibre, which has almost no memory. This allows even the smallest flies to be cast easily.

Length: 16ft
Diamater: 0.57-0.21.

We are supplying 2 x 16ft Snowbee Camou French Leaders, these are ideal when combined with your choice of tippet for presenting small flies with no drag - keeping all of the leader off the water.

Fly Series: Small Flies & Small Streams

This 3rd book in the series, by FlyFishMedia, contains a detailed analysis of how to approach fly fishing in small streams, using small flies.

In this book, you will discover the techniques, flies, watercraft and how to approach fishing in smaller streams and rivers. This book also discusses the type of conditions you can expect to face on small streams and the various tips, tricks, and techniques used to fish them.

Our Own 'Super Secret' Drying Towel

We've found the ideal solution for drying your flies - not commercially available, so we decided to make our own! The first time they are available is in this bundle. We will never sell these, as they are a little bit 'rustic' but they work fantastically well.
