We asked Phillippa Hake to tie up one of her lovely jig nymph patterns she has in her box when out targeting both trout and grayling! It’s a fly she says oozes movement and with the huge range of materials available, you can change the colour combination to suit the fish’s needs in your local river!

Phillippa Hake shares this winning gem! As we edge ever closer to the colder months, another trout season passes us by in a flash and leaves some great memories! You can’t help but feel the chill in the air which really, is actually getting me quite excited for some grayling days! Over the last few weeks I’ve been busy whipping up some grayling flies to try this autumn and winter. Keep reading to see my step by step on a little Pink Tag Nymph! Guaranteed to put a few grayling in your net!
Tying Crunchers are pretty easy to do! Kit yourself out with these materials to tie up some of these fantastic flies!
Working alongside the Semperfli Gold and Silver Fleck Chenilles Semperfli have been working on other colour blends of chenilles that attract fish. Since the release of their Gold and Silver Fleck they have been using a new Copper Fleck in their Copper Tinsel Fleck 15mm, It produces stunning flies and has less ‘flash’ which can occasionally put fish off biting. With a more subtle copper flash we have found fish loving this chenille. Use as bodies of streamers, large fly patterns, Humungous or even blob fly patterns. Available on a multicard too!
