App. #12

This very small and delicate emerger most likely stems from a visit with Welsh Paul Slaney back in 2004. It's been laying around together with a bunch of other flies, including a handful of different Diawl Bach's tied by Paul.

Welsh, mate!

An article on the Welsh classic The Diawl Bach and on the intriguing and intimidating concept of fishing a team of three flies on a very long leader. GFF partner Martin Joergensen has been to Wales and this is the first article from that trip.
