| Re: Favourite Bass Flies? Couple of easy flies to make which have brought me a lot of luck  Silver body wing made of hair extensions from Wilkison with a bit of flash tied in plus a 4mil gold bead for weight.  Good luck on your Bass hunt this year. Flyman |

| Re: Favourite Bass Flies? erm, you only get the funny looks in Wilkinsons if you buy all 5 that they have left and then ask "Have you got any of the bright coloured ones as well? "  |

| Re: Favourite Bass Flies? Excellent, I can't wait to see their faces..........i think there is one in Brighton, But as you probably heard, Brighton is full of weirdos! I was born there!  lol! Don't worry though, I'm as straight as they come! Many thanks for your imput, saw a fella flyfishing from a boat just off shore, brilliant mark, very rocky weedy area and it harbours many bass, should be fun. I was reading some of your old posts flyman, you seem to have it licked finding bass holding areas, gonna try also our local river, watch this space ill post results. |

| Re: Favourite Bass Flies? Out of interest do you only use a set size hook i bought 2.0 and they still look a little too small. p.s the eyes i bought off ebay were crap. |

carp hooks easier to cast as im useing 6 wf line. The eyes i think give the fly a better look but run out of them myself. I hope to get up brecon this weekend to pick some up , u havnt got to use the eyes a lot of my flys havnt got them and still catch just as well. |
