A great pattern for sure.

Great to hear of their success over the pond Phil. And credit to Peter for creating such a deadly Stillwater fly, probably the best attractor type fly ever created for rainbow trout. I’ll be looking forward to filming the uk version this autumn and hope I can do it the same justice you have done. Tightlines! 🎣

Thanks, Rhys. A definite shout out to Peter for creating his Apps Worm. You provided lots of other great patterns too. Good luck with my patterns. My fingers are crossed! Cheers, Phil

As an Englishman now living close to you Phil it’s great to see the flies from home work well. Thank for sharing .

I believe Diawl Bach means little devil in Welsh just means fish on to me!

The cormorant has been very kind to me here in the US. Thank you Phil and thanks to all UK and worldwide fly tyers out there. Hawkins Cheesies. Damn those look like a great snack to crunch into!

Thanks! Like the Diawl Bach, the Cormorant is an excellent stillwater pattern. Hawkins Cheesies are the best, but I have only ever seen them in Canada. Cheers, Phil

Thanks Robert. I have already filmed a few. Just have to get them edited and posted. Cheers Phil.

Interesting challenge for sure. I think some of those worms he sent you would be worth the effort to see them tied on your channel. They are somewhat unique. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Wayne. I just finished filming a number for f new tying videos for my channel including two Apps Worm variations. Cheers Phil

Nice experiment Phil. We have a similar experience over here in Australia where the majority of the UK flies work, some better than others, same goes for US and Canadian patterns. The main difference is in the size of our midge which tend to be pretty small, so the larger buzzer patterns don't work so well over here. :)

Thanks. I still believe it’s the presentation that matters most. We are a bit spoiled in western Canada as our chironomids can be huge. In some lakes I have used patterns tied on #6 scud or #8 2xl nymph hooks to match the natural pupa. We also have some tiny species too. Cheers, Phil

I've gotten interested lately in British flies and would be very interested in seeing them tied.

I always was wondering how to pronounce Diawl Bach

When I was doing my research for my now-discontinued first book, Fly Patterns for Stillwaters I learned that it was pronounced "Dee Owl Bach". Cheers, Phil

Phil... what is the name of the 'DL Box' fly? Cannot find... thanks

Hi Jay, I think you are referring to the Diawl Bach. It’s name is Welsh for little devil and is one of my favourite pattern styles. I will be featuring a couple of tying videos featuring a couple of variations I used with good success this past season. I have one version already on my channel. It’s a fantastic stillwater fly.

Makes sense those flies work on a “UK style” managed lake planted with catchables fed/raised on pellets, for which they were developed … would a better comparison not be one of the lakes managed by the Freshwater Fisheries Society., Planted w/ fingerlings which grew up feeding on natural lake biota and thus more inclined to respond to “match the hatch” presentations?

Thanks for taking the time to place your comment. I was at Corbett for one of my stillwater schools and simply took the opportunity to film there. Although the trout in Corbett were initially raised in hatcheries, as with those in public waters, they must learn to fend for themselves once stocked. At times they can be just as frustrating to convince as those lakes managed by the Society. I have also used these patterns with good results on the lakes you mentioned as well as others outside of BC including Alberta, the states, and most recently Argentina. As Rhys's flies have now become part of my stillwater boxes I will be making a point of showing them in action on other lakes as well in future videos. Cheers, Phil
