This blob is tied with two new colours I dyed recently.
The Hot Pink goes well with the pale Yellow.
Going to give this a try tomorrow.

Fly Tying Scotland blog. News, up coming products and general ramblings on fly fishing and fly tying.
Indian Capes Now In Stock
We now have some very nice Indian capes in stock.
Both cock capes and hen capes in natural and dyed.
These capes are perfect for fly tying with a good range of hackles from small dries to large lures.
There are nine colours of dyed cock capes and eight natural.
The dyed hen have seven colours.
While the natural hen have six in the range.
Mixed Partridge Feathers Dyed And Natural
I dyed some mixed partridge feathers and have been really enjoying tying with them.
I think Partridge is a very under used feather that has massive benefits to any fly tyer.
New Blob I’m Working On
Been working on this blob.
Picture does not really show the colour properly.
The colour at the back is a between a Coral and an Orange.
It has worked well on it’s own but thought I would team it with FL Yellow and add booby eyes.
I will be trying this out over the next week or so and will post up dates on it’s success or failure.
Another Batch Of Flexi Done
15mm Boosted Fritz Dyed Butterscotch
A while ago I dyed some flexi in Butterscotch.
This proved to be very popular so thought I would dye some fritz the same colour.
I have used it already and it worked well despite it being a difficult day at the fishery.
Tied on it’s own it caught 3 fish on a hard day.
Looking to team it with some other colours to try on my next fishing trip.
Marabou Fly Tying Feathers
I spend a long time on my marabou.
Starting with raw feathers I trim off all the waste then wash them.
They are then dyed and put through my own final process giving a soft fluffy feather with no waste at all.
The Best Blob Hooks
Simply cant see past these hooks for tying my blobs.
Strong as an ox and easy for releasing fish.
Quite simply the best I’ve used.
Only £3.50 per box of 50.
Yellow Spider
I recently dyed some partridge feathers
and I tied this yellow spider using the yellow partridge.
This has been proving very productive on a number of different waters.
