Author: {{+1}}Knots – FG knot how to tie{{-1}}
{{start}}
Since I perfected this tie of the FG knot I have not suffered a failure of the knot and it has accounted for heaps of big barra.{{end}}
{{+1}}Check list – emergency kit{{-1}}
{{start}}
I keep my emergency kit in a small orange zip lock bag. It does have just enough first aid items to get by but most of the content are items you may need in an emergency.{{end}}

{{start}}
These are the colours that I use when making my own soft plastics and also favor if I am buying production soft plastics.{{end}}
{{+1}}Knots – Chatto’s snelled front stinger knot for flies & lures{{-1}}
{{start}}
This is a process that I have developed over the last year or so to mount a stinger hook in front of big soft plastics that I fish in low light or in dirty water. I am confident that this process will be fantastic for adding a stinger to a fly.{{end}}
{{+1}}Adding lead to a “weedless” AKA “worm” type hook{{-1}}
{{start}}
Weight can be added to a fly in many different ways and they effect how the fly sinks and swims also in many different ways. This is how I add weight to weedless / worm hook when I am going to use the fly to make a fly similar to my Scrounger fly.{{end}}

Fly colours rules of thumb: For bright days bright colours, dark days dark colours, clear water translucent flies in natural colours, dirty water solid colours and match the hatch when possible.{{end}}
{{+1}}“Mal de mer”, “sea sickness”, “motion sickness”{{-1}}
{{start}}
This is my approach to Mal de mer, sea sickness, motion sickness or whatever you want to call it. It is a terrible affliction and can spoil what may well have been a great fun day.{{end}}
