Default Need Hlp New to fly finshin

Hi all,

I need some help. I ma new to fly fishing and as yet have not been
successful in landing a fish. A friend of mine told me that I should
keep practicing and suggested that I obtain a "bread Fly" and practice
on mullet in a local river.

I went to several tackle shops and not one could sell me a bread fly
or even tell me what one looks like.

Does anyone in this group have a picture of one of these flies they
could send me and any information on what is involved in tying one
would be helpful.

Awaiting your reply.

Cragels,

At first, I thought your friend was pulling your leg, so before I
posted a reply telling you that your friend is pulling your leg, I did
a little research and this is what I found.

Hook : Kamasan B400 # 14 - 10 Silk : Tan Underbody : plastazote
Overbody : Tan fur.

Glad I didn't post that your friend was pulling your leg!

We need more details, e.g.
1. Do you need help landing a fish you have hooked
or do you need help gettting a fish to take your fly?
2. Tell us what species are availalble, freshwater or
salt, what leader and fly you usually use, floating or
sinking line etc.
3. European anglers say (European) mullet are
exceptionally difficult to hook. They are sal****er
estuary fish, largely vegetarian I think.
