Stu has been fly fishing and tying for the past 57 years and during this time he has developed some amazing fly patterns. His signature DDH Leech has taken 96 different species of fish in fresh and saltwater. His book “Tyed and True” shows flies that will not only catch trout but every game fish species in the province. Stu is a multi-species fly angler and will chase any fish with a fly rod.
