Thread: Fly advice for a beginner

I've almost exclusively caught my fish on Hare and Copper with a Pheasant Tail. That may have something to do with the fact that's pretty much all I use.

I've got a soft spot for Totara flats, it's where I shoot my first solo public land deer. Must get back there and take the fly rod by the sounds of it.

Cracker spot alright @Dorkus. I also shot my first deer in there back in December 2014 at the far end of the main flat, on a solo over night trip in my last year of high school. A cherished memory that I will never forget! Amazing place, and by the looks still a few sneaky deer about.
