My name is David Luckhurst and I live in South Staffordshire in the
UK. with my wife Emma and little boy Josh. I have been fly fishing
since around the age of 11 but really took up the sport in earnest
during the early nineties. I have concentrated mainly on fly fishing for sea
trout at night and I find this one of the most challenging aspects of
our sport.
I have tied flies ever since my father-in-law gave me some fly tying
equipment one Christmas. I tie mainly sea trout flies and prefer
patterns sparsely tied to the more heavily tied patterns.
I am a qualified instructor teaching beginners through to the more
advanced casters. This one aspect I really enjoy and seeing others
getting pleasure from our sport is fantastic.
I have recently stated making furled leaders to improve my
presentation when trout, grayling or sea trout fishing.
My flies are available from www.seatroutfisher.co.uk and the furled
leaders from www.furled-leaders.co.uk.
