Fly ID Problem

Hello everyone :)

I have trouble trying to ID one of my flies.

It has an orange tail.

A friend said said it was a Scottish Doober, or dober???

Does that ring any bells with anyone?

Thank you

Belinda

Re: Fly ID Problem

Hi, I think the fly you`re talking about is a Doobry Fly, it was first tied by Stan Headley from Orkney and is normally used as a top dropper in a team of wets fished loch style.


Welcome to the forum (From a Scottish Dobber nice one Steve lol)

Unhappy Re: Fly ID Problem

Hi,

I lost the fly, but I think I found it again - it's the only orange tail one I have.

Picture attached.

Many thanks


Actually, I'll post the image just as soon as I can find out how to do so on this thread...
