I have been interested in flies and have done a great deal of searching and studying to determine what would be the best information to present to our visitors here at Trout University. As such, I have scoured the internet and magazines for the best Youtube fly tying videos as well as the best flies to sell on the site. As a result of my efforts I have selected videos to present and I will be offering for sale a line of Perfect Flies created by the world famous fly fisherman James Marsh.
Through my studies, I have learned the importance of great detail and how it improves an angler's odds of catching trout especially those older, larger wily trout. So I was pleasantly surprised to find this amazingly realistic foam ant in an article in Hatches Magazine. The article entitled "A Fishable Realistic Foam Ant by Sergei Utkin" details just how to go about creating this fly. My hat is off to Hatches Magazine and Sergei Utkin for their good work!
