gday all i tried various nymphs but no go so last night i tied a hamfisted
damsellfly fly at a mates place,
with a bit of blue thong,blue raffia,dearhair head and a couple of strands
of arctic fox for a wing,
and bugger me third cast and it was snaffled by a nice rainbow it buried me
in the weeds and thru the hook but hey thats not important!
i posted a pic of my blue wonder but my pic posting skills leaves a lot to
be desired it came out like a godzillas damselfly
thanks for all the help fellas

hi all i have had a frustrating time at our local dam with 2kg plus
fish hitting damsels and dragonflies as they hover just above the
surface any suggestions on how to tackle this would be greatly
appreciated i have only managed one fish so far and that was after i
had given up on dries and tied on a green and yellow soft hackle on
and that was the only hit on that fly for 2 days
Try this one, Tony:

If the damsels are out, it fishes well. Just fish it like a slow streamer.
