Today we are looking at the Toady McToady Face! Crazy name, but you'll soon understand why. This fly is a cross between two popular stillwater flies, The Pinky and the Apps Bloodworm. The Pinky being a very vibrant and colourful fly mixed with the appendages of the Apps Bloodworm. Combine both together and you get Steve's invention, the Toady McToad Face. The small black blobs on either side of the fly give it a very 'toad' faced impression, further justifying it's name. This is a killer pattern and you'll get takes across the UK, especially if you present it on a Stillwater venue.
All of the materials needed to tie this fly are available from Glasgow Angling Centre as listed below, but as always, if you need any help finding materials or substitutes then we'll be happy to help. Time to tie a Toady McToady Face, with the guidance of Steve Cullen.
