Thanks to the selfish t**ts that aren't taking covid serious, my wife is back working crazy hours and I'm finding myself having more time at the tying bench in the evenings. Hopefully have a few more flies finished this week to share.
The cascade use to be my favourite and most successful fly, fishing it 90% of the time. After going through the full 2019 season without even a take on it, I kinda gave up on it and only had it on once or twice last year.
Now I'm tying again, I can make tweek them and tie up some of Andrew Mcgall firetail cascades. With fox in the tail and fox wing, it will be a lot more mobile. Hopefully it will restore my faith in this trusty fly. Tied on size 8s to 12s (and a few brass bead heads) on a range of gold/silver/halo rear bodies and green or fire orange arses. This should cover plenty of different conditions throughout the 2021 season
Hope you like me
