Bassano's Blind Caddis

Click image to enlarge

Part of the Christopher Bassano Custom Selection. See Christoper's description below...

This caddis pattern is most effective in water deeper than one meter. It sinks faster than the Polaroiding Caddis and is a great edition to a team of nymphs when fishing from a boat. Bank anglers will find this a terrific fish catcher when using the dry / dropper technique as it gets "to depth" at a naturally fast rate.

The fly itself is very imitative and works well on spooky fish. A fly pattern for both mainland and Tasmanian waters, this is one of those flies you should always have with you. Barbless.

Bassano's Claret Nymph

Click image to enlarge

Part of the Christopher Bassano Custom Selection. See Christoper's description below...

Claret has been my favourite colour for decades when mayflies are around. This nymph is my number one on Little Pine, Arthurs, Woods and Penstock. It needs to be fished very slowly or even static on a long leader. A slow figure of 8 retrieve is deadly. For me, this is a top dropper or point fly depending on the depth of water. Cast at a rising fish and given a "draw" past the fish, it is deadly. Be careful not to break fish off on the take as they can hit it very hard. I only ever fish this fly on a floating, intermediate or intermediate tip fly line. Barbless.

Bassano's Claret Nymph - Black Tungsten Bead

Click image to enlarge

Part of the Christopher Bassano Custom Selection. See Christoper's description below...

The black tungsten beaded claret nymph is a point fly that I use in clear water or when the fish seem very fussy on bright days. It works very well using a slow figure of eight retrieve once left to sink to the desired depth (just above the weed!). It is also extremely effective fished static under a dry fly or indicator on Little Pine, Woods and Arthur's lakes.

Both the black and copper headed nymphs work very well on the rivers in smaller sizes such as 14 and 16. Either under a dry fly or in a team of nymphs fished upstream, they are deadly. If things are quiet, use the copper bead but if the water is low and clear late season, the black bead provides the subtlety you often need. Barbless.

Bassano's Claret Nymph - Copper Tungsten Bead

Click image to enlarge

Part of the Christopher Bassano Custom Selection. See Christoper's description below...

The copper tungsten beaded fly works best when there is a little colour in the water. Fished deep and slowly over weed beds, this fly also catches plenty of fish on the "hang" at the boat as it is drawn up and stopped. In a team of drab flies, this is often just what is needed to induce a take.

Both the black and copper headed nymphs work very well on the rivers in smaller sizes such as 14 and 16. Either under a dry fly or in a team of nymphs fished upstream, they are deadly. If things are quiet, use the copper bead but if the water is low and clear late season, the black bead provides the subtlety you often need. Barbless.

Bassano's Polaroiding Stick Caddis

Click image to enlarge

Part of the Christopher Bassano Custom Selection. See Christoper's description below...

This fly was designed for sight fishing whether it be polaroiding or tailing fish. Almost every trout in Tasmania has a stick caddis in its stomach at all times. This fly sinks slowly which enables you to present the fly well ahead of a moving fish without spooking it. It was originally designed to be fished by itself on a leader of around twelve to fifteen feet. That is not to say it can’t be fished in a team of flies on the top dropper or in the middle. This fly works in every lake! Barbless.

Bassano's Possum/Hares Ear Nymph

Click image to enlarge

Part of the Christopher Bassano Custom Selection. See Christoper's description below...

This is a top dropper fly when fish are feeding on mayfly duns or nymphs. Wherever mayflies are present, this is a great fly. It sinks slowly and represents the lighter coloured nymph very well. This fly should be fished in a team as per the Claret Nymph and at least nine feet from the end of your fly line as the top dropper. Barbless.
