Glow in the dark FLY!!
Bit bored in tier 4, so I made this 4" joey Mackerel fly and a few more, for fly fishing for pollack should I be able to holiday in Scotland this summer. Might even try it for pike in some deep weir pools!

That looks great Trevor, it would surely work in any light condition, give it it a try!

Cheers Paul. The ones I make are on a 4/0 hook. I've never made any smaller, so a size 10 should be interesting. At the moment I use a 6" engineers vice!
