Yeah its my "Pregnant Constipated Worm" fly.

Its the sort of next level thinking, attention to detail and excellence of execution, that you can expect from all the masterpieces in my new custom fly range.

am i correct in assuming that each fly will be custom tied for different situations and as a result no two flies will look the same

Correct -

although I have kept meticulous notes of all the twist, turns and x-wraps in sequence - So I could produce carbon copies if I so desired.

You tie this one on if there is a sudden 3 knot shift of wind to the west

Love your work but would i be right in saying if you turned it over you could use it if an easterly blew up.Or would you be releasing a completely different model.

As part of the "Compass Range", I will be creating separate, individually tuned, flies for every wind direction and strength.

I'll start with the basics - North, South, East and West. But I'm currently tying up a batch of Nor Nor Easters which will cover that 1 minute window as the wind swings

Sounds like you have really thought this through with your marketing team beware starlo and bushy could be reading this as we type.

Maybe you could include a compass in each pack a bit like the old bata scout shoes for those old enough to remember.

I like the way you think -

After countless hours of R and D, I've sourced some high quality units built for tough for Australian conditions.

The innovative man would magnetise the hook and use the fly itself as a compass

that westerly option has some great bridle work there, obviously to ensure there is longevity after multiple catches.

I assume that being in a constant state of innovation you have an online link to patent them & protect your great work.

You do realise that that price is in USD? Could get a little pricey with the exchange rate the way it is

Pretty sure they have an ointment for that, available at most pharmacies.
