Testimonial

If spotting and stalking big, surface-feeding browns in seldom-fished waters is your goal then Russell is the ideal guide. His Sparky’s Floating Spider pattern was the fly du-jour. Every New Zealand-bound angler should have a dozen tucked into the fly box....Along with some Stimulators!....”
