Scott Cooksey - Modern and Traditional Fly Tying

A Channel for Fly Tyers and Fly Fishers, demonstrating Modern, Traditional and Innovative Fly Patterns for Brown Trout, Grayling, Rainbow Trout, Salmonid Hybrids, Salmon, Sea Trout and Coarse Fish such as Carp and Pike. There might be the odd Saltwater Pattern thrown in too. You should find useful patterns that simply catch fish. Some of the patterns are unique to this channel as I write. I try to demonstrate alternative ways to tie some patterns with a "Make do and Mend" type philosophy for those with limited materials or for beginners who are just starting out.

I also film Fishing Sessions, Product Reviews and Fly Tying/Fishing Hacks, Tips and Tricks such as how to build your own Fly Tying Tool set from easily aqcuired inexpensive items.

I'm an all-round Angler based in Powys, Wales with 25 years experience as a Game Angler and Fly Tyer, holding a degree in Marine and Freshwater Biology from Prifysgol Cymru Aberystwyth.
