If you follow our outlining of this specific pattern closely - You will get one of the best flies you can carry in your box

The V-Fly ™ that you find tying instructions to below is designed and cut into proportion to give you a fly with all the right abilities. It fishes equally good from both banks. The position of the hole combined with the dimension of the tube, makes the fly leave a delicate and highly attractive wake behind it. The inner diameter of the tube supports the hook thus giving you the possibility to leave the hook in the correct position.

Good luck ! Jesper Fohrmann & Per Fischer 2008
