best flies for bass would somthing that represents a baitfish. a good expamle would be: clouser(wetted)  surf candandy(wetted)  deciever  as for mullet i use a bread fly, you can buy similar things in the shops called egg flies but i dont think they will work as good as these  I hope this helps, tightlines, scott |

throw in some bits of bread first to get them feeding and then cast your fly..... they will fall for it everytime

Where are you getting the bread flies from ? Can't find anyone who sells them.

So........ Would everyone fancy having a bit of a go at freshwater fly fishing first, or do we all meet up in a field to have a bit of a practice at casting then get someone from here who knows a bit about the salt water fly fishing to take us to a productive mark and have a go for real?  ?? |

i have done a bit of salt fly fishing had a few bass and pollock but some advise on bass flys would be great as i dont have a clue and my aim is a big fat mullet on a fly. thanks mick mick im having some mullet flies and bass flies tied for me ready for the spring , if you want a couple of each let me know and ill send them across , ill let henry g give you advice as i know nothing about fly fishing , and im a total novice ....looking forward to it never the less ....... lee. By no means am I a master lee!!!!....self taught really so I am probably doing it all wrong. I used to practice in my mates long back garden trying to land feathers in the paddling pool!...get the hang of it after a while. Id say to anyone starting out to go for an 8 - 9 weight rod with a matched weight forward floating line and practice. Casting is smooth and effortless when you get it right!! |

Fulling mill stockists shoul sell the Bread imitations.... they also make a Boneo imitation for the discerning fly angler after carp. I make most of my flies but the ones i buy i get from Carpdirect in West Meon,
So what does everyone think for a little session in the summer then to try for the bass and Mullet?
