He sure does! For some strange reason I got into the habit of keeping it "in reserve". If the going was tough I put it on out of desperation and it saved several blank days. The sensible thing to have done is obvious... Last year it worked a treat on the South Esk in October and got me my biggest fish to date at 25lbs. I suspect it was created more as a spring fly (?) but it does well all season. Calvin's was made with the backend in mind but is a cracker in the spring! All these theories about spring/autumn colours are b****x, by the way. |
