  • History: Uses: How to Fish
    Klinkhamer Special (presented by Alex Blaque) History: This pattern was designed and first tied by Hans van Klinken in 1984. The L T Caddis however was given the now recognized name ‘Klinkhåmer Special’ by his colleague Hans de Groot. Other tyers including Tomas Olsen & Roy Richardson are credited by Hans for similar solutions but this particular emerger pattern is Hans’ own work. Uses: The Klinkhåmer Special, or Klinkhammer as it’s often known, or even just Klink, is a very popular fly originating from Western Europe. Tied with a parachute hackle, it is an emerging caddis pattern fished during corresponding hatches. Colour and size variations of the fly adapt it for use during other hatches and make it useful as a searching fly in a similar way to the Adams. The Klinkhåmer Special is traditionally a trout and grayling pattern but should be considered for all kinds of fishing situations where fish will rise to a fly; it’s certainly been used to take Salmon and I’ve caught some good size chub with it. How to fish: Originally fished to best effect by it’s author using a ‘downstream’ presentation, the pattern is effective when presented using any standard dry fly technique. Effective for trout, grayling, and any free rising species. Recipe: Hook: 8 - 20 Partridge 15BN or 15BNX or Orvis Klinkhammer 8A00 or a curved caddis hook Thread: Grey or Tan Body: Fly-Rite poly 2 dubbing light-tan or to suit Wing: White poly-yarn Hackle: Blue-dun cock hackle Thorax: Peacock herl Variations: The hooks 15BN and 15BNX are the current patterns from Partridge.

Keyword: book review | sports history | environmental history | fly fishing Article: In Trout Culture: How Fly Fishing Forever Changed the Rocky Mountain West, Jen Corrine Brown offers an environmental history, a sport history, and a political critique. According to Brown, mythology about fly fishing in America’s Rocky Mountains has had dire consequences for native fish. As Brown notes, this mythos has been idealized in popular culture by Norman Maclean’s masterpiece A River Runs through It (1976) and Robert Redford’s 1992 film adaptation of the same title. Both novel and film depict the sport of fly fishing in the West as a religious experience—an activity and place where access to pristine nature with pure motives become possible.

  • Canterbury Fly Fishing Club Tip and Tie Sessions : Variants Add the Spice
    Canterbury Fly Fishing Club Tip and Tie Sessions : Variants add the spice . Notes on some members’ favourite fly patterns, how to tie them and tips on how to use them.1 Dave’s Orange Nymph (a Partridge and Orange variant) This is a highly useful and versatile Kiwi variant: a nymph pattern based on a traditional British wet fly. Named for Dave Grimwood this nymph came prominently to the attention of CFFC members after Dave’s runaway success on a one-fly only club day on a South Island High Country lake. It has since become ‘World Famous in Canterbury’. The original Partridge and Orange wet fly is of the soft hackle type and used for both trout and grayling. It is much favoured in Yorkshire as well as in Scotland where it is usually tied very sparsely in the so-called ‘Clyde Style’. Hook: size 12-16 wet fly e.g. Kamasan B405 Trout Sub-surface with 14 generally the most useful size Thread : Olive, Red, Black depending on weighting Tail : Golden Pheasant Tippet Rib : Fine copper wire Body : Orange floss abdomen, with dark fur as thorax; underbody of lead wire for weighted patterns Hackle : Brown (natural) English Partridge Tying Tips: The pattern may be used unweighted, lightly weighted or heavily weighted depending on conditions, where fish are likely to be in the water column and thus the method of presentation. Colour the head of the fly, using different tying silks, to denote the type of weighting. For example: red for unweighted, olive for lightly weighted and black for more heavily weighted.
