Long story longer
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.
The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.

Martin,
yep, it is widely used in Scandinavia for sea trout in saltwater. I am sure it will work for perch and pike as well. The fly you describe sounds cool. Why not upload a photo?

HI Kasper,
seems like an easy to tie fly that will work very good for rainbow trout at midday in the riffles on the rivers of northern Patagonia. Do you use it for sea trout in Scandinavia? I tie a similar fly with lead eyes (rides inverted) with Dark Olive hackle and rusty orange dubbing. I use softex to comb the shank side hackle backwards to imitate a Pancora crab. Will try the white "White" Tight lines, Martin
Serge,
thank you.
Serge,
thank you. Rasmus Hansen developed this fly.
Yes, I always use a Rapala knot. It works for even the smallest flies and does not limit the movement of the fly.

HI KASPER nice fly
HI KASPER nice fly , is it a good one for sea trout all the time ? do you use a loop knot for all your fishing situations, is it a rapala knot or a surgeon loop.
thanks ,serge
