Fly Tying Scotland

September and October bring the best stillwater competition fishing of the year — reservoirs and lochs alive with stocked trout, and the pressure on to have the right flies in the box.

The Autumn Stillwater Essentials edit brings together the hooks, floss, and chenille that serious competition anglers reach for when it matters: precision barbless patterns, UV-reactive finishes, and material weights that perform in cold, clear autumn water. Build your bench strength for the season.
