SHIPMANS BUZZER FLY PATTERN TIED BYROB GEE FROM TROUTLORE FLY TYING STORE AUSTRALIA

Shipman's Buzzer Fly Tying Video Now Available

The Shipman's Buzzer is a popular midge fly pattern, particularly for trout in stillwater and slower-flowing rivers. It's designed to mimic the emerging stage of chironomids, so it acts like a buzzer that's stuck in the film. This pattern was created by Dave Shipman in the late 1970s in the UK, and here we are, in the mid 2020s in Rushworth, tying it still!

The video can be found at the following link :
