Norbert Renaud from L’Ile Verte Lodge in Cavan is a pike guide who specialises in bringing French anglers to Ireland. Based in Killeshandra, Norbert is in one of the heartlands of pike angling in Ireland. Norbert live streams a fly tying session every Thursday night on his Youtube Channel. In this episode of “The Live Sessions” Norbert uses Kanekalon hair and Congo fibers to tie some fabulous looking flies that are as durable as they are effective…
Norbert’s Notes: I am not a commercial tier and I tie mostly for clients while guiding or at the lodge. We call these flies “guide flies”. They need to be easy to tie, good value, long lasting, easy to cast and more importantly they have to catch fish! This is the reason why I use mostly two synthetics for these flies: Kanekalon hair and Congo fibers.
