These 'new' flies are constructed using Tungsten beads, which are the same
size (4mm) as normal Gold Head beads, but are twice as heavy so that these
flies will really sink fast. If you intend to go stalking or to pay a visit
to one of the big fish waters then you must take a selection of stalking
flies and include some very heavy flies. The reason is: once you have
spotted your Trout you will only have time for 3 casts, so it is most
important that your fly sinks to the level of the fish and if he does not
take it as it sinks, retrieve it and recast. You will probably only get one
more chance before the Trout moves on. If the fish has not taken your fly at
your third cast, find another fish.
These flies are tied using shimmer for the body and a long mobile Marabou
tail.
