Autumn Fly
A Danish sea trout pattern, tied up for an upcoming article.
Andrew Marshall
Andrew Global FlyFisher Andrew has been tying for some 35 or so years, much of that time in-hand without the aid of a vise. The first fly he tied was done in hand, with a bait hook, probably a #6 or #8, using gray mallard for tail. It was then palmered, with a second one up front as hackle. The tying thread was smuggled out from his mother's sewing stuff. The fly was stolen from him almost before the cement had dried, and so he figured, if it was that good, he must be on to something and made more.

Alan Petrucci
Alan at the vise Global FlyFisher I have fished streamers ever since the first vacation we took to Mooselookmeguntic Lake in Rangeley Maine back in the mid 70's. I love their style and their histories . As a fly tyer thats only happened a few years ago. I will tie the well known classics, but I like to tie my own, with a lot of colors, "attractors" I guess. I have recieved a great deal of help and support from some wonderful people. You can visit Alan's blog at Small Stream Reflections
