Ulf Hagström tying his pike fly pattern called The Wild thing.
It’s not your ordinary lightweight pike fly, this is a double handful monster of an untamed fly. It will bite at you when you try and tie it on your leader. It will curse you and yell insults at you when you cast it and it will body slam any pike that’s foolish enough to come close to it. It’s wild and heavy. If a fly could be a wild sailor who’s just come ashore drunk on rum and looking to fight anyone who looks at him; this would be that fly. Full material list to be found in the intro of the video.
