“IKEA fly”
Brian writes, “This fly is only 2cm long. A real killer in low water. It’s an interpretation of the famous Black Sheep. A Swedish friend of mine named it “The IKEA fly” after he caught a big sea trout in River Mørrum in Sweden. The first version I did 2 years ago did not have a cone head.”
Black Sheep in one of my absolutely favourite for both Ponoi and Umba – most of the time I fish the Black Sheep on a double hook size 6 or 8 – From June until end of September
