Halloween, no way to escape to it. This is an opportunity for us to make you discover flies that haunt our boxes and bristle the hair of purists. Let’s start th...
May is here, dry fly fishing will start very soon to be very productive. Here in parts of Europe, curfew will be lengthened and we will finally be able to fish ...
I wanted to share with you my favorite nymph. I never move around without it. My box is full of them, big, small, heavy, light.
This special one, I brought ...

Killer Carp Fly
With summer heat comes the times of surface fly carping. The poorman's bonefish, on the ponds' flats, and so much emotion to look forward to......
Micro Pheasant Tail. With the approaching opening of trout season, everyone is getting busy at the vice. Networks are full of proudly lined up armies of nymphs,...
Summer's here, and if you're lucky enough to have some water in your rivers, you know it's time to take out the terrestrial's fly box. It's that time when hymen...
With such a name, one would expect some feathery rock'n roll on the hook, and that's what you get. It's just like that toxic babe, the illegitimate daughter of ...
The season has started, and soon the fish will start to look up. Then will come the blessed time of dry fly fishing, and the dearest emotions of that sequence e...
We're at the season's end, and we've all been in this situation where the fish (especially graylings) seem to rise on nothing at all. That's when you want to re...
I love 2.0 fly patterns. When years of streamlining by pro tiers and other hurried and demanding people at the vice took everything unnecessary out of the tying...
Every fly tying session that we do is the same. We start by drinking some beers in the street in front of Alex's appartment, talking about the shop where he wor...
Quite a simple nymph to tie, and probably a very good one to have in your box. But what caught me was rather the quality of the film, of the music, the rhythm o...
This week, only one video in the post! But what a video... Marc Petitjean is a famous Swiss fly tyer which sells tying equipment and materials. A talented perso...
Dammit, it's really a crappy weekend. The reverse of the last weekend: the ocean has become this great and vast desert which we all feel when nothing bites. Wel...
Few days ago, a friend sent me two photos. Two huge pike. Caught with lures, certainly, but these fish were so huge (you recognize yourself dude). Anyway, it re...
Well, I continue with crab. Seabass are coming while I'm writing. And you better be ready when they'ill be there!
The reason why I return to crabs is that I fo...
Last week I was in Coyolles for a fishing break I've been waiting for a loooong time. The place is dear to our hearts, you'll hear about it more later. That day...
Holger Lachmann is a fairly young and quite gifted fly tier from Germany. He dedicates his blog to what he calls the One fly. You know it. That special fly that...
Summer, low water, hard conditions... Usually there will be tricho hatches somewhere. I wouldn't leave home without some in my box. A quick and neat way to tie ...
As one of the foremost proponent of the patriotic approach to fly fishing, we owe to ourselves to have something special flywise in order to celebrate the demol...
I know I won't get many of you on this one, but I love fashion, and I think the idea to present flies as a collection, just in the spirit of the catwalks, is br...
At Le Mouching, we're huge fans of Tightline fly tying videos: they're always extremely well shot, execution is flawless, the text is gin clear and the voice en...
I love my flies on the gypsy side, and by that I mean: no fancy materials, no fancy techniques and really fast to tie. Of course, it has something to do with th...
March is coming rapidly, although not quite as fast as we'd like, and it's as good a time as ever to hit the vise and tie a couple of March browns. Here are two...
It's hip, I won't deny it. There's even the obligatory hipster bashing at 2'27 which is a true hipster stample. But it's a fresh take on the problem of fly tyin...
Today and for once, some fly tying stuff. My buddy Sylvain Coupé, from the SC Flyshop, earned himself quite a reputation for selling only impecable goods, only ...
With a name like that, how not to expect this fly to be all about rainbow colors, flower power and making love not war? I know very few patterns that could appe...
Here are some flies tied by a french fly fishing enthusiast : Benoit Ledoyen. Nice piece of work ain't it ?
