When Irish trout are smiling 🇮🇪
A rather nice trout caught a while ago on the river Nire in Ireland on a dry dropper All the more reason to plan a return trip next year

20 minutes to land - great fun

Dordogne, France — great scenery, lovely river, tricky trout
Been lucky enough to fish here for several years. Eventually tempted this one on a purple and black barbless nymph.

Parachute Adams - struggling to find my ideal combination
Hi
First off, I don’t tie flies so my apologies for my ignorance and terminology gaps 👀
This fly is my go to emerger. I am in the Uk and buy from a variety of sources but I prefer the softer more textile like post on the left to the more plastic crinkled post on the right. Trouble is I want barbless and the one on the left I’ve had to crimp the barb. Any ideas where I could source a barbless version of the one on the left? Thanks!

Tarn river France - brownie finally caught on a Black Frenchie nymph
Spent ages chasing it down on an Elk Hair Caddis but got there in the end across and down on a nymph - Parfait!

9 years fly fishing the rivers of France. This brownie from the River Tarn made it all worth it — landed on a Black Frenchie nymph
