Tying a snatcher style fly

Here I am tying a snatcher style fly. I have found this pattern to be quite an effective fly at Hillend. One night in particular springs to mind when Colin and I could do no wrong with this fly in the boathouse bay

  1. Nice vid there dabbler. With a bit of practice I might be able to do something nearly as good.

  2. I'm sure you will George.It's a relatively easy pattern to tie.
    Most snatchers have jungle cock cheeks but I do not have a jungle cock cape and have found that the fly is effective without them anyway.
