Is that the black plastic bead? I really like it! beautiful tie! I always have very good luck with the black bead nymph...wheather it was metal or plastic... I think they add a bit realistic and fine touch...
Thanks Mark...actually it is only a varnish on the dark head, so it looks round like a salmon fly head. I usually don't put varnish on smaller flies, but did on this one.
I totally agree on your comment about beads-they are cool and I use them often.
yes 99,9% of my fishing is indeed trout fishing outside of The Netherlands. Most of the time in southern Germany/Austria region. It's simply the best: gin clear streams, amazing scenery and TROUTs!
That's great! I am curious if you had an opportunity to visit trout and greyling waters in Slovenia or Bosnia-both countries have some amazing rivers and quality fishing. I grew up in former Yugoslavia, and only fished Serbian waters before I moved to the USA.
I've never fished the Slovenian rivers yet. Heard & read a lot of good stuff about them. It's a LONG drive to the Balkan area, yet I still might do it one day.

Vlad,
Very nice looking flies you have here!!
Jeremy.
Thank you Jeremy! Next time we fish, I think I am going to try droppers and mix some winged wets and soft hackles.
I just walked into your blog.
Great style, your tying is exquisite, the glass rods are pretty cool too.

Hi Jay,
Thank you for your kind words. I noticed from your profile that you are from Netherlands...do you mostly flyfish from trout or other species?
Thanks for stopping by,

Do you come back often?
Jay
Jay,
I don't visit as often as I used to do-I might go next summer. How often do you visit/fish the States?
Vlad
Vlad,
It varies. Sometimes once every 2-3 years.
Jay
Jay,
Hopefully one day we'll have a chance to fish together-either here in the States or in Europe...
