Pulsar series

The idea for the Pulsar’s arose in 1989 after I read an article about Rats and Cossebooms (which both feature collared hackles). But instead of using a hackle, I used a mixture of dyed rabbit fur and tied it in as a collard to awake some extra action in which I believe attracts salmon better.

Bondal series

With the advent of the Bondal Black, even more hairwings within the same series evolved and they larger and larger. Today the Bondal series include about 13 difference patterns, which are worthwhile to try for Atlantic Salmon in Europe, Russia and eastern North-America.

Flies to catch "Inconnu"
When I started to explore the feeding behaviour of the Inconnu, I found that spoons were most successful in inciting them to strike. I, therefore, wanted a good trade off between realistic fish fry and a streamer. I actually had put all my efforts into designing a small streamer with the same action and mobility as a huge well-proven pike fly.
