Developed in the early 18th century on the Aire, Wharfe and Ure, they have continued to catch trout and grayling on rivers around the world. Simple patterns which can be a magnet for fish at times.

So why not come along and enjoy a few hours reconnecting with the past and fine tuning your wet fly fishing.
