We call them classics because of the way they are tied: a wing dividing the front hackles and with the balancing 1/2 turbo cone as head. Most of our flies originates from this family, the complex fly with all ingredients. To us these are the most fun to both tie and fish – they are the classics of our time!
This is a favourite sunshine fly. When the river is turning blue it’s unbeatable, but it’s also great in crystal clear rivers. To make the fly blend in is important especially on the clear day in clear water. This is a fly that works great in the spring too, a big flashy Sillen is a superb cold-water weapon as long as the water is clear. We fish this favourite fly in all sizes down to just a few mm.
